Nine months after a boulevard in Kansas City, Missouri, was renamed for US civil rights leader Martin Luther King, voters have decided to switch back to its historic name.
The 10-mile (16-kilometer) street was originally known as The Paseo but was changed to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard in an 8-4 vote by the city council in January.
A group called "Save the Paseo" launched a drive to reverse the move and nearly 70 percent of the voters who took part in Tuesday's
election agreed that the boulevard should revert to its original name.
