Spelling of the name

[edit]

According to https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowTopic-g60763-i5-k529025-o10-Origin_of_street_names-New_York_City_New_York.html#3153871, this street uses the British spelling ("centre") rather than the American spelling ("center") in its name because it was one of the few street names in NYC retained after independence. Does anyone have a reliable source for this? —Moxfyre (ǝɹʎℲxoɯ | contrib) 14:32, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
