Central Park? Ohhhh, you mean Amazon.com Park!

The New York Times reports that Giuliani's successor, Bloomberg (and yes, he will always be known as Giuliani's successor), is going to start selling naming rights to parks and stadiums in NYC (ok, so he might be known as the guy who sold Central Park). Well, even though I'm poking fun at 'berg, I do like his idea. My father, the transportation expert, has always held that the same should be done with street names to raise money for the town. OK, who has an emotional attachment to "Belcher Circle"? Wouldn't "Beech Way" or "Driscoll Drive" sound much better? And what a great anniversary present... "Honey, I had our street named 'November 30 Boulevard!'"
