"Nightmare” street (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elm

'nightmare street' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for elm that I've seen before include "Hard wood" , "Hardwood tree" , "Deciduous tree with light serrated leaves" , "Tree of the genus Ulmus" , "Leaving body" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the Penny Press.
