In the same way that the city streets in DC coincidentally lay out to the mason's square and compass shape. The forfathers of this city were probably travellers from the future that knew the significance of this event, and laid out the entire city based on it. They just forgot to carry the one somewhere, and missed the alignment
But do you really think the rather small city of Norwalk, Ohio was planned for a nearly-perfect alignment for the center of the 2024 NA total eclipse? (Feel free to look on the eclipse map of your choice -- I'm not trying to deep-link or screenshot that, and it would be beneficial to the viewer to be able to pan around. And it's easy to find:
When panning around the eclipse map, Norwalk is about the only city directly on the center-line up North in Ohio.)
(That said: The alignment of Main Street to the center path of the 2024 eclipse in Norwalk might indeed be planned. Sandusky, Ohio is not far from there, and is said to have been designed around masonic symbols[a]. I don't discount the idea. And that's part of what makes it alluring to me, even though I tell myself that it must be a coincidence.)
I'm absolutely sure that it is completely coincidental. And yet: It is also very alluring.
