Turn left AT Licoln Street

Hi, could you please help me?

We usually say "Turn left into Lincoln Street".

Is it correct too to say "Turn left at Lincoln Street"?

Thank you in advance!

Turn left at Lincoln street means exactly that. It might not mean turn into Linconln street in fact you cold be turning the other way. Lincoln Street is the landmark.
