Which street has a numerical designation of 5500 S?

Garfield
Pershing
Balbo
Harrison

The correct answer is: Garfield

The street with a numerical designation of 5500 S is Garfield Boulevard. In Chicago, streets are often designated with a numerical system that corresponds to their position relative to the city’s grid, which is measured from State Street. Each block south of the "zero" point on the grid typically represents a change in the number designation by approximately 100 for each block traveled south. Therefore, 5500 S indicates Garfield Boulevard, which is located in the 55th block south of the central dividing line of the city. Garfield Boulevard is a well-known east-west street in the South Side of Chicago, making it a significant landmark within the city. The other streets listed do not correspond to the numerical designation of 5500 South. Each of them has its own respective numerical designation, which helps define their locations in relation to the city's organized street layout.
