Lincoln Hits the Century Mark

One of the homes being built as part of the Journal Star's Ulimate Home Delivery contest is in Waterford Estates and its address is 401 N. 100th Circle. It's my understanding that's the first-ever three-digit street inside the Lincoln city limits.I remember being wowed by addresses in the 7000's.

See what your friends and neighbors have to say about this.
I just flipped open the phone book, and there’s a Barnabas Kiir at 870 No. 23rd, and a Gunter Kienast at 825 No. Cotner.
There would be a lot of north and south streets that have 3 digits.
I think the three digits being noted are the ones in the street name - 100th Circle - not the address number.

You’re misunderstanding what I’m talking about. There has never before been a numbered street that is 3 digits long in the city limits. 23rd is a two-digit street and N. Cotner is a named street like Garfield or Van Dorn. We used to stop at 84th and recently grew into the 90s. I’m not talking about a 3-digit address. A 3-digit street would have a 5-digit address, as in 10001 O St.
