 NEW YORK (AP) - A block near the headquarters of ABC News has been renamed Peter Jennings Way, honoring the longtime anchor of "World News Tonight," who died of lung cancer last August.
The portion of 66th Street between Columbus Avenue and Central Park was renamed Tuesday after the Canadian-born anchorman who worked in the neighborhood and also lived nearby. He even knew shopkeepers and street vendors in the neighborhood, his family said.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg attended the renaming ceremony.
