If you address a letter using the new street name to a resident of the block, will they get it? Or, will it be returned to the sender? And, are taxi drivers learning the secondary names for the street-name quizzes? hmmmm There are many special green or blue signs that have new second names for streets just below street signs that already existed on the corner throughout the city now… is the postal service aware of these names?

It will always be known on maps etc as Kossuth. By the way, the legal name of the street never changes. It will always be known on maps etc as Kossuth.

I think this is a good nod to this event and a plaque on the actual corner might be even better. The street name already has historical significance and shouldn’t be changed.

Co-naming is not as good. For example, do you know where "James Cagney Place" is? (You know, James Cagney in the movie Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942).) I am not saying there are not good feelings and wishes behind this. I am just saying that when a street is REALLY renamed there is a chance that people will call it by that name.

People still call the street by its original name. Co-naming means very little in the long run. People still call the street by its original name.
