South
West Street is interrupted at the north end by the McDonald playground at Avenue T, as well as the bend in McDonald Avenue starting one block further north at Kings Highway. Norh of Kings Highway, the street was renamed Dahill Road in the 1920s, and is also interrupted at many points. Together, West and Dahill form boundaries for the old town of Flatbush, the East and West numbered streets, and the East numbered streets to the old Brooklyn street grid. While McDonald Avenue is usually recognized as the East/West border, it can be seen that West 1st Street is to the east of McDonald Avenue, and West 2 and West 3 are also east of the Shore Road continuation of McDonald.

Other numbered streets
Bay Streets
There are 28 "Bay Streets" in Bath Beach numbered Bay 7th Street through Bay 50th Street. Every third street (Bay 9th Street, Bay 12th Street, etc.) is replaced by a numbered avenue . Most of them run between 86th Street and Belt Parkway.

After, the streets begin numerically, beginning at Brighton 1st Road, Brighton 1st Place, Brighton 2nd Street, Brighton 3rd Street, Brighton 4th Street, Brighton 5th Street, Brighton 6th Street, Brighton 7th Street before hitting Coney Island Avenue, which runs perpendicular.
Then, Brighton 8th Street, Brighton 8th Court, Brighton 10th Street (which has a small cul-de-sac of small side streets named Brighton 10th Court, Brighton 10th Path, Brighton Terrace, and Brighton 10th Lane), Brighton 11th Street, Brighton 12th Street, Brighton 13th Street, Brighton 14th Street, Brighton 15th Street, ending at Corbin Place, where Manhattan Beach begins. For some reason there is no Brighton 9th Street.
