Street Name Restoration

SSC-4

Observation

This trajectory, which is assembled from three streets-Napoleon, Seventh, and Lake Park Road-lacks the civic identity it deserves.

Discussion

To establish identity, these three street names may be replaced by their historical name of St. Francis Street, reestablishing their importance and coherence. Alternately, this street may be renamed its other historical name, Lake Park Road, as a symbol of its finest asset, the lake at its northern termination.

Recommendation

Replace the three street names with the historic “St. Francis Street” or some other name to be agreed by the residents of both neighborhoods. Change the signage.
