 in the city is mainly demarcated by water features; there are no east street numbers, and all east-west streets are numbered with addresses west from the easternmost point of Sheboygan's original plat on Superior Avenue on the Lake Michigan shoreline. North-south street numbers are marked from Pennsylvania Avenue, with no north-south numbers lower than 500, an artifact of when the north/south line was defined as the Sheboygan River, which was eventually changed to a straight line down Pennsylvania Avenue to reduce postal address confusion in the 1920s (500 coming from Pennsylvania Avenue being five blocks south of the Sheboygan River's southernmost point in the city's original plat). This street numbering system is additionally used by the Towns of Sheboygan and Wilson.
