Wisteria Lane is not in Minnesota

Duluth, Minnesota does not want to be known as the town with Desperate Housewives. The Duluth City Council voted against a couple's request to change their street name to Wisteria Lane. Yes, they wanted to do it in honor of Desperate Housewives. David and Jean Sackette said they like the show but they also asked for the change as a way of protesting local environmental restrictions and neighborhood opposition to developing ten empty lots. The city council told the Sackettes that re-naming their street Wisteria Lane was whimsical and unprofessional. Unlike their current street name, Denim Drive.
