Dow">Alden B. Dow</a>.</li> <li>All streets radiating from downtown end in the word "Way." Among the streets are Center Way, Winding Way, Circle Way, and Parking Way. There is an intersection of two streets named This Way and That Way. In the same spirit, a local church near Bess Brannen Elementary placed a small sign in their driveway named His Way. There is also an Any Way.</li> <li>Most other streets were named after some form of <a href="/wiki/Flora" title="Flora">flora</a>. As the city grew and common names such as Pine, Mulberry, and Oak were taken, developers had to become more creative; thus, among the plants used are Jalapeño, Tangerine, Mango, and Habañero. The highways running through Lake Jackson, (<a href="/wiki/Texas_Highways" title="Texas Highways">Texas Highways</a> 288 & 332) and Oyster Creek Drive, are exceptions to the naming conventions. The naming convention of "Drive," meaning a route into or out of town, is less honored today than in the beginning.</li> <li>Dow intentionally laid out the streets so that they seldom follow straight paths. He wanted to maintain as many trees as possible, a principle still practiced in the development of new subdivisions. In addition, he thought that curving streets provided more surprises in unfolding vistas. Lake Jackson is a part of the <a href="/wiki/National_Arbor_Day_Foundation" class="mw-redirect" title="National Arbor Day Foundation">National Arbor Day Foundation</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Tree_City_USA" class="mw-redirect" title="Tree City USA">Tree City USA</a> list. Also, many of the streets follow Oyster Creek, which twists and winds through town.
