River Avenue and 161st Street will be renamed to Rivera Avenue according to the NY Post. City Council in New York passed the vote 47-0 to change the street name and honor the former Yankees closer Mariano Rivera. Very cool gesture for Rivera to have a street named after him and for people to recognize his body of work and charity in the city.
And for everyone wondering Mike Axisa has said they would not be changing the name of RiverAveBlues.com. Bummer, have some fun Mike. They would not change their Twitter name either for Mariano Rivera day, all business I guess. Oh well congratulations anyway go out to Mo and his family.
