After a few days, no correct answers. Here's a hint: If you 'have knowledge about New York City transit, you might be able to answer it.

They are the streets to all the transit stops. I'm not going to look at the route schedule to find the next street.

Close enough! They are the stops on the "E" Train in Manhattan, going downtown. The next street is 14. A thumbs up! http://youtu.be/FKCnHWas3HQ and http://youtu.be/bvKj8lTuVtk

9 because it does not contain a "T" in the spelling. Then 7 would follow 9 and then 6, 5, 4, 1.

Think about the spelling of the numbers. All the numbers listed have a T in their spelling. The number sequence is going down, so looking for numbers with no T in their spelling below 23 would be the ones I listed making 9 the next number in the sequence of numbers with no T.
