The tounge is on hold at the end of "lot" and releases the 't' sound at 
beginning of "yn". (car lot-Tyn-ctra-se).

Also, the second 'a' is longer than the first one!

Since the spelling reform, -straße would be correct
(if it wasn't a name). The ß indicates that the preceding 'a'
is emphasized.

(As in German Maß or Saat)
(Not as in German dass or lassen)
