Tulsa, OK is a trip. Perfect square mile grids for most of the city. Looks like a chessboard flying in at night.

Until you get out to the burbs, the streets are names crossed by numbers, everything regular.. I used to navigate the whole town with one page from the phone book. Even when you get into numbers crossed by numbers, it still makes sense.
