My interpretation has always been that a divided street with a strip of grass in the middle is a boulevard. The main street in my home town is this kind of road and it's named "_________ Blvd." We do call the grass in the middle the median. I have no word for the strip between the sidewalk and the road.
As far as "buggy" goes, that's an old-fashioned British style pram...a "baby buggy." Or, it's one of those old-fashioned little carriages, like in the musical
Oklahoma.
