It’s Time to Change the Name of Bush Street
I’m serious. While Bush Street in San Francisco was not named after our current President, it is ironic to have a City that has never supported this Administration to have a street with the same name. Residents and tourists alike are reminded of George Bush when they see it, and with America’s image tarnished by his actions it can only be a bust – not a boost – to our local economy. Street names have been changed before, and there is no reason why the City can’t afford the nominal cost to modify a few street signs. The Board of Supervisors should pass legislation changing the name of Bush Street – it’s San Francisco Values.
