Rename Downtown Street to Martin Luther King St.?

I would just use MLK...most people will know what you are talking about. But I would avoid using "King" so people won't confuse it with "Kings Dr." in midtown.

Speaking of Martin Luther King Jr Dr, I snagged this pic of the new streetsign by Wachovia Plaza.

I think there a already a little street by JCSU called MLK, it is true that any street named MLK is viewed as an unsafe area, most of North Carolina's HBCUs are located on or by an MLK street. WSSU, which is just minutes away from Downtown Winston-Salem is located at 601 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, and of course north of the school is the ghetto and that goes the same for NCCU. There's an MLK near NC A&T, but NC A&T is better off any the other HBCU's are it is in a safer area. So what's the history of Stonewall Street, isn't Stonewall a Civil War or American Revolution general from the Charlotte area? New York has a Stonewall Street, but its history is dated back when the English took control from the Dutch and they built an actual stone wall to protect themselves from the Native American.
