I live close to Park City Utah. It is a VERY unique community, a combination of the wealthy and an upscale tourist destination.

In my travels as a supplier engineer for General Motors, in Evansville, Indiana, iirc, I found a Street Road, and Boulevard Avenue. Unfortunately, they didn't meet, so I could not be standing at the corner of Street Road and Boulevard Avenue.

Unique means one of a kind. There cannot be anything that is very unique, or most unique.
Of course, any day now I expect to find that some hamlet in a forgotten US state has been named Most Unique City . . .

In like manner, I was wondering if there were any places called State County, or State City, or County City, or National County, etc. Imagine if you lived in State City National County?
About street signs, I pass this one when I drive to Las Vegas
And I saw a pic once of the street sign on the intersection of Pupu and Pupu (in Hawai'i as I recall).

One of my favorites in a similar vein [from my childhood so it may no longer be true] is the John Deer dealer on Caribou St in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan  .

Yes that sort of multi-language redundancy is wonderful to see.
