On giving directions

[jwgh]

I was walking west on Angell Street on the East Side of Providence when a car pulled up next to me. The driver asked me, Does this street take us to Providence?

I was a bit puzzled. You're in Providence right now, I responded.

Yes, the driver said, but does this street take us right into the city?

I dunno. I think the 'center' would be Kennedy Plaza, because, City Hall and the banks. I guess just follow your nose.
