{{merg
ed from|Tree Avenue or tree alley (allee)|2016-05-15}}
A recent anonymous contributor seemed confident that an avenue originated in city planning. Reverted. Any early usage we might quote? --

Prospekt (street)
is an article about the Russian concept of avenue. The word is basically a straight
transliteration
of the Russian word "
проспект
", which is adequately translated as "avenue". Since this is the English Wikipedia, articles on transliterated words should not be created unless the word also happens to be a
loanword
. This one is not.?

- Merge
Prospekt (street)
into
Dual carriageway
or
Street
, not here. This is a specific landscape design element use of term
avenue
, with or without a street
[motor avenue]
.?

- I don't think
dual carriageway
is a good choice, but merging it into
street
should be fine.?

- I think perhaps merging
Prospekt (street)
into
Boulevard
would be the best choice -- but two things are clear: (1) "Prospekt" needs to be merged somewhere and eliminated as an independent article, and (2) "avenue" is not the best place for it.

I need to withdraw this article.after using a different name "avenue" instead of "tree avenue" I found an existing article which I'll edit to include my information. Sorry to inconvenience anyone.

, I have now done it. ?

As the three examples given (from French-speaking Canada, Croatia and Germany) show, "allee" is only used in languages other than English - what's more, the word used in Zagreb is "Aleja" ("Aleja Bologne"), and in Berlin it's "Allee" without an accent - so the French word is only used in French-speaking countries (makes sense, doesn't it?). I feel this should either be deleted (along with the reference to "allee" at the beginning of the article), or else expanded to indicate that this doesn't apply in English - but then what's it doing here in the first place? And "alley" won't do either, since it only means a narrow, often dilapidated and insanitary side street, invariably without the trees that make an avenue what it is (see the reference to the "Alley" article at the end of this one). It's incorrectly used several times in this article, so I've changed it to "avenue" throughout - or, in the case of the nonsensical "Bologna Alley" in Zagreb (it's a major four-lane road, not a poky little English "alley"!), deleted it altogether .
