Change Kitchener's name back to Berlin?
#96

There are a couple on Moore that read 'Charon Street,' at least one on Guelph that reads 'Grove Street.' Alas, I don't think there is one for 'Bierwagen Street.'

I'm going to start a petition to change Margaret Ave to Bierwagen Street.

Bierwagen Name Meaning
German: literally ‘beer wagon’, an occupational name for a drayman (a man who delivered beer to taverns and inns).
