Props to whomever typed the info for using "an historic", all too often I see or it as "a" instead of "an". Yay for proper english!

There are still cobblestone streets in parts of New Orleans, (Felicity Street and Race Street)

San Francisco had some cobblestones left in the 50s and 60s, probably allgone now...the cobblestones were sourced from the farm my family owned north of the town of Penngrove, CA.

it doesn't matter what kind of stone. it is the fact that they are cobbled together to create a surface.

Gary, the original Cheers is in Boston @ Fanuiel (sic?) Hall. Big place, lots to see.

I lived on a cobblestone street (hill) in Brooklyn, NY in the 1990s. Then cable installed wires & they paved over the cobblestones. I was always impressed by a teenage neighbor who skateboarded down the cobblestones everyday. He loved it and said it was is challenge (never fell) and was very disappointed when they paved.

constantgamer0421, both are correct. Technically, following the rule, it would be “a historic” because you pronounce the “h” sound. Unlike “hour” where you do not. It has become a regional thing and only about 1/3 or Americans pronounce it “an historic”

Elfred’s Alley Philadelphia is the United States oldest continuously inhabited Street. It’s probably number one or two in the most photographed in the country
