You may make a left turn on a red light only from a:

One-way street onto a two-way street.
One-way street onto a one-way street.
Two-way street onto a one-way street.
Two-way street onto a two-way street.
Explanation

The reason you can make a left turn on a red light only from a one-way street onto another one-way street, unless signs prohibit it, is that it is generally safer than turning on a red light across multiple lanes of traffic. When turning onto a one-way street, there is no opposing traffic coming from the opposite direction that you need to worry about.
