Crestfallen Lane? Interesting Street Name!

There's a movement afoot to name the lanes in Seaton Village so that emergency personnel can find garages more easily. (When they're on fire, it's pretty important.)
The Toronto Star wrote up the history behind one potential name: Crestfallen Lane. The fascinating story involves a horse saved from the glue factory; a pioneering doctor; and a diptheria outbreak.
Cheers,

Seaton Village LaneNaming Project

There is a movement afoot to name the 50 lanes in Seaton Village
Why?
"It is our hope that the process will acquaint people with Seaton’s history and character, encourage the use of our lanes, improve response from Emergency Services and City Works, as well as improve their attractiveness with the efforts of the residents."

The community project is still seeking input re: possible names, so put on your thinking caps!
Cheers,
Vanessa
