A dead end is just that, a road that just ends. A cul-de-sac has a circle of pavement at the end, usually with houses or businesses around it.

Ha ha.... I asked this too, but not to yahoo.
A dead end just ends. Like the end of the street and the ending is a freeway wall.
A cul-de-sac has a circlular ending w/houses.

cul de sac is french for one road in or out, not just a dead end or a close

It has to end in a rounded horse-shoe type shape. Kind of like a circle.
Here's a picture of a dead end that is a cul de sac:

It would mean turning the dead end into a turnaround and placing houses around this turnaround...
I'm not sure where you're going with this...
