The name of Rodeo Rd., pictured above, was changed to Obama Boulevard by the City of Los Angeles on Monday. The sign and unveiling took place at Rancho Cienega Park, which lies approximately at the midpoint of the new Obama Blvd. While only a sliver of the street lies within Culver City’s borders, the street joins Washington Blvd., Jefferson Blvd., and Adams Blvd. as streets named after former U.S. presidents in Culver City.
