The street name game
Apparently, it isn't that hard to have a street name or number changed if you pay for it. Secoffee Terrace used to be 27 Terrace before neighbors paid $55.00 each to the city for the name change.

I like a couple already, Grapefruit Lane and Mango Way.

Thank you Grapevine. By the way, anybody can make suggestions for the names of the streets. You don't have to live there.
So I guess there will be a Marc Sarnoff Ave soon.
However, streets should not be named for living persons. Let's not forget the lesson we should have learned with Jose Conseco Way.
I vote for Grapevine Boulevard!
That would be awesome if there was an actual sign that said "Sarnoff Circle" at that one on Virginia.
When you said, "The neighbors paid $55 each", did that mean everyone on the street had to pay? That would suck.
Looks like Tony is also asking about CG being an independent city. What's that about?
Tony, I and others have had meetings on this and there is a file dating back a long way with all streets named and some petitions signed. Can I work with you on this. I stopped progress on it when the effort was begun and underway to get 28St and 27th Lane closed heading toward 27th Ave.
