Renaming of roads for Johnnie Cochran
- Share via
I was surprised to read about City Councilman Herb J. Wesson’s proposal to rename a short portion of a street in Los Angeles after the late attorney Johnnie Cochran (Feb. 20). There is already a street named Cochran running through the city’s 10th District, which he represents. I know because I live on it. Renaming this street for Cochran makes much more sense than creating another, confusingly similar street name nearby.

It’s great that a school’s being named after the late Johnnie Cochran. And as far as naming a road, wouldn’t a stretch of the 405 Freeway be best?
