Not usually, when a street name is changed the post office and the parcel services use both names for a long while.

Historically streets have been changed in the city after being known as one thing for a long time. Jeff Davis was Hagan avenue and Lee Circle was long Tivoli circle and MLK used to be Melpomene ave.

Let's get rid of this street name, his womanizing and philandering offends me.
