San Diego To Get Harvey Milk Street?

San Diego's city council is considering a request to rename a street in its very gay Hillcrest neighborhood after Harvey Milk.

San Diego Pride leaders are hoping to rename the street by May 22, which is the Harvey Milk Day celebration. "Not only does the street run into the LBGT center, this is where the pride parade begins, where the community gathers, where there's a new pride pole project being proposed," San Diego Pride Executive Director Dwayne Crenshaw said. If the street name changes, the 17 properties on the street will have to change mailing addresses and local maps will have to be edited for visitors. "The name change will only apply to two city blocks of Blaine Street two city blocks, but will make a big change in history," Crenshaw said.
