I was referring to "Why don't they just create street names?" Sorry about that. As to how it happened in the first place, well, Albania was incredibly isolated for the longest time, so I suspect that naming streets just wasn't a priority or necessity to their leaders.

Here's a BBC article on Tirana Mayor Edi Rama that touches on the painting of city buildings.
What?! Are you crazy?! Read the article??? I've got a feeling that street names are an interesting issue, but not the most pressing one.
