McNab's group stopped at Hector Street in the book "Maniac Magee" because it was the territorial boundary that separated the East End from the West End of the town of Two Mills. The East End was predominantly white, while the West End was primarily African American, and the two sides had a longstanding feud. The stop at Hector Street symbolized the racial tensions and divisions within the community.
