MLK Street
Welcome to Wikipedia!

In regards to the renaming of MLK, the source I cited, http://www.chron.com/CDA/archives/archive.mpl?id=2005_3866881 says "One is L&R Financial Group, a family business that set up shop in 1979, about the time the former South Park Boulevard was renamed Martin Luther King, to honor the late civil rights leader." - so unless/until we get a reliable source saying that it was renamed in 1977, we should say "around 1979" - I just found a source that says 1977, so I am adjusting the refs!
