Trump Avenue won’t be on the map much longer. The contentious street sign in the nation’s capital bearing the U.S. president’s name will soon come down. The motion to rename the street unanimously passed in Ottawa’s city council. But why was it named that to begin with? The Ottawa neighbourhood it currently resides in was originally named Central Park more than 20 years ago and many of its streets were named with a New York theme in mind.
