DATE REFERENCE SUBJECT: Street Name Changes, East Allen PAGE
NUMBER Avenue and Saint Joseph Court Iof 1
12/27/76 PZ-765
Mr. James M. Robinson, Jr. , Assistant Administrator of Saint Joseph Hospital,
has requested the street name of the old "East Allen Avenue" from Main Street
eastward to where it forms a cul-de-sac at the Santa Fe right-of-way be
renamed -Saint Joseph Court.
East Allen Avenue has recently been rerouted eastward from Main Street along
the Laurel Street right-of-way and over a new bridge, rejoining East Allen
Avenue east of the Santa Fe right-of-way. The old "East Allen Avenue" referred
to by Mr. Robinson is 550 (f) feet long and is abutted on the north by Saint
Joseph Hospital property and on the south by five lots under three separate
ownerships. A street name redesignation for this portion of East Allen would
avoid future duplication of street names and numbers in the 100 and 200
blocks.
The affected property owners have been notified of this proposed street name
change. The Police, Fire, Traffic, Public Works, and Water Departments of
the City and the Post Master have reviewed this request and have no objec-
tions.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the name of Laurel Street be change to East Allen
Avenue and the old "East Allen Avenue", from Main Street to 'the Santa Fe
right-of-way, be changed to Saint Joseph Court,
