**UPDATE 5/27**
A single vote at 11:59 pm last night allows Colton Avenue to complete a perceived upset and knock off Morse Boulevard. This match up was the most hotly contested of the Round of 32. All final results are posted below. Other items of note:
*Sunnydale Avenue, another favorite to win, is out after losing to Kelton Avenue.
*In the preliminary poll for Best Street 2011 both Colton Avenue and Kelton Avenue had very strong showings. The fact that they were able to take down Morse and Sunnydale may not be as big of an upset as some may believe.
*Stronger than many would have believed in the first round: Tamarack and Exbourne.
*Below are the match ups for the remaining 16 Streets. Voting will start Tuesday.
Colton Avenue vs. Exbourne Avenue
Graceland Ave vs. White Oak Way
Kelton Avenue vs. Elizabeth Street
Eucalyptus Avenue vs. Tamarack Avenue

Tamarack got the word out I see.
We are a proud team on the ‘Rack. We also have the best block parties.
HGTV’s show Curb Appeal has been on Tamarack! 🙂
Why can’t I vote? no button to press this go around?
Hi Leanne,
Minor technical issue….try again!
Thanks
Bob
Still sad that Exbourne didn’t progress further, but will cast my vote for this final round : ). The only thing is …I don’t even know where Bay Tree Road is. I’ve lived in San Carlos since ’71 and don’t think I’ve ever been on that road. So, best of luck to the final two – this has been fun to watch as it has progressed!
Thanks for the post, Jay. Bay Tree is a very nice street. It intersects Rosewood and runs parallel to Morse, right behind Burton Park.
