State Street is now Lee Street.  That street no longer dead ends on Capitol Street.
Charleston Street is now West Washington Street.
Quarrier Street ends at Capitol Street.  It would be years before it continues to the Elk River
Laidley Street"  only runs a block or so.
Fayette Street on the West Side would later be named Lee Street West.
