It doesn't translate directly. It is more than likely somebody's name. Hope this helps

In this context it will probably mean, site, as in a group of houses which are similar or apartments..

I don't understand what all the fuss is about. It is simply a street name carrying the name of a certain person. So why bother translate a name. While at it you may have a go at my name "Ismet Ustuner"

No street is named after me but who knows?

why i was asking if it could be translated,it is the name which has been given to the street leading to my apartment.all the other new streets and roads on the complex around us translate into something in english.a couple of the owners just wondered if this did.thanks
