Tom, according to Wikipedia this Leyden street is named after the Dutch town Leiden.
When you'll view this image you'll see that Leiden is a well known town to me. Therefore I thought that your image was taken in a Dutch street as I see a lot of similarities.

Cornelius , Very interesting , the pilgrims were provided haven there from what I have read on the links you so kindly provided and we do have many "Dutch Colonials" here , a style much the white house on the left of this photo. Ironic that we find so much common ground here with our photos. Thank you my friend , Tom
Oh I do like the early evening capture with the lighting, and it has a very feel to the overall image. I found the info from Mr.C. to be a superb compliment to your post. tigs-^..^=
