{{speculation|Please remove names that are purely made up}}
'''Street names''' are a relatively cosmetic aspect of [[Grand Theft Auto]] games that were originally mentioned rarely beginning [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] to define more prominent landmarks in the city, with the concept utilized in a similar degree in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]. Due to the increased level of detail, nearly all streets in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] have names, which are are supposedly useful for locating landmarks.
In the [[GTA III Era]], '''streets''' were rarely assigned a name. In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], due to the increased level of detail, every street has a name, which are are useful for telling locations.
