i would have been interested in seeing the background for Urbano Drive.

what i know about the street is that it was originally a horse track which
opened in 1895. Auto racing was held there intermittantly from 1904
to 1911. in 1912 a housing development was built which incorporated
the track into the city's street grid as Urbano Drive.
