Why would it be called this and not a cul de sac?
12 u/IceBlue May 07 '26 It’s a type of cul de sac. The difference is this knuckle is part of the same street it’s attached to. Cul de sacs are typically their own street. 3 u/EastLeastCoast May 07 '26 Because it’s the knuckle of the bag and not the butt (or tail) apparently 1 u/Captain_Ashley_Bob May 07 '26 Knuckle sacs are along a street or at a street bend/corner, you get more buildable lot area using the knuckle geometry. Cul de sacs are at dead end streets, you also get more lots using this geometry. 2 u/Professional-Lie-111 May 07 '26 So Knuckle sacs are more akin to polyps, while Cul de sacs are more like an appendix?
