Every Seatteite should know the names of the downtown streets with this mnemonic - “JJesus CChrist MMade SSeattle UUnder PProtest”

From south to north the streets are:

James John Cherry Columbia Madison Marion Spring Seneca University Union Pike Pine

If I already knew how to get around, I wouldn't have opened a mapping app.

"You should already know all the streets" is not what I would call a scalable approach to labeling maps.

Jefferson, James, Cherry, Columbia, Marion, Madison, University, Union, Pike, Pine. IIRC. The rest of the sequence seems correct.

What a ridiculous thing to say. I guess they only make for locals who know the area.
