100 percent corner

The 100 percent corner is the busiest area in a city. Often it is a crossroads of several major streets, and the place with the highest land value and/or where grid plan numbering is based upon.[1] The term is also used for the place for ideal real estate projects, sometimes considered the intersection of two highways in a suburban area.[2] The terms "hundred percent location", "hundred percent corner", or "peak land value intersection" may also be used.[3][4]
The 100 percent corner is used in research as part of a method to determine a city's downtown area, by measuring a radius (e.g. one mile) from the central intersection.[5]
- Examples
- Broad and High Streets in Columbus, Ohio[6]
- Fayette Street and South Salina Street in Syracuse, New York[7][8]
- Fourth and Muhammad Ali Boulevard in Louisville, Kentucky[9]
- Church and Chapel Streets in New Haven, Connecticut[10][11]
