Some places still have “the paseo” e.g. saw at 39th street. One of those high dollar illuminated street signs.<br />2. The new signs have scrunched letters that are kind of hard to read in order to fit all those words in. <br /><br />Ok actually 3 observations. I would be against the name change except for the fact that it’s already kind of a done deal it seems like. <br /><br />Sorry 4th observation: would’ve better honored dr king to clean up his namesake park, throw some money at that instead. Or how about those endless wars we love to start ... what would dr king say about that??? He was a big time anti Vietnam war guy and he was 100% right that war was total bullshit and everyone knew it eventually. <br /><br />Thanks,<br />Radish Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-21990372602955337122019-06-27T19:10:54.440-05:002019-06-27T19:10:54.440-05:00Sorry/not sorry, it will always be the Paseo.

This was an idea of the great E. Clever who with his Baptist ministers had his hands all over this. The name was going to be Martin Luther King/Paseo Blvd.<br />The dual name compromise gained support and when the bill went back to the committee of sponsors who were guess who (THE 3RD DISTRICT COUNCIL MEMBERS) the Paseo from the name. Typically CLEVER then lobbied for the passage of the modified ordinance which gained enough support to pass.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-34777708513863487782019-06-27T10:19:44.791-05:002019-06-27T10:19:44.791-05:00Keep the Paseo.

Instead they have pushed the MLK name change through which does not really have any economic impact on the people. Why not fight for something of real value to the people instead of the symbolic crumbs.

In a city known for its fountains, why not rename a fountain or build a new one. Paseo runs by several parks and one lake so the land is available.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
