Dead Presidents

I just noticed something odd.  I was looking at a map of Enumclaw.  Some of the streets are named for presidents, not in any order and not all the presidential streets are in the same area.  It’s also an odd mix of presidents that were chosen.  Here’s the list of presidents that have a street named for them:

Lincoln
Roosevelt
McKinley
Garfield
Harding

Apparently, if you’re president, and you want to have the town of Enumclaw name a street after you…. you’ve got to die while in office.  The only presidential street names are for those who died before their term was up… three of them were assasinated.  If they add Kennedy (or it may be there and I just don’t see it) then this is going to be a bit creepy!
