    it is all correct. but the way you use "doble" is not correct. you must say "dobla". if u say "doble" its like u are talking to a "usted" and "dobla" is more impersonal  :)

    cuadra is Spain means stable ( you know, that place for horses); it also could be the 3rd person singular of the verb "cuadrar" give to something square form. There's another strange thing: the text uses both the colloquial and the courtesy marks: tú, usted, that's why appears dobla (tú), doble ( usted). The pronunciation is quite acceptable; can be understood. It's the construction of the text which has not much sense. I don't know, for example, what's the meaning of "sigue una cuadra" you will see another street; don't take it, take the next one?
