Yesterday, in a ceremony that took place at the corner of Second and Warren streets, the 200 block of Warren Street was dedicated to Barbara and Jacob Walthour, for thirty-five years the owners of a bar known as the Savoia, first located at 255 Warren Street and later located at 216 Warren Street. Signs indicating the dedication now appear at the intersection of Second and Warren and the intersection of Third and Warren.
The story of how this came about is told here: "Honorary Street Naming." Lance Wheeler was present to record the dedication proceedings. His video of the ceremony can be viewed here.
