In 1952 I was in the Army and just arrived in Frankfurt,Germany. I did not have much money and asked about getting some before payday. I found out that it was easy to get to a pawn shop by calling a taxi.

I got a taxi (that was an experience in itself) went to a pawn shop and pawned my watch. I wrote down the street name and number so I could get back.

On payday, I called a cab again to get my watch. I gave the driver the street and number as 2245 Einbahnstrasse and he burst out laughing.

Einbahnstrasse means "One Way Street".
