In 1981, local officials renamed what was then East 9th Street “MLK Boulevard” after civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Before MLK Boulevard, though, the neighborhood was known as “Big 9,” where a variety of Black-owned retail shops, offices, and entertainment venues were clustered + thrived on the strip.

Editor’s Pick: Guys. Veganuary just got a whole lot more fun — I recently discovered that Rocket Fizz (downtown’s soda + candy shop) offers vegan candy bars. I’ve only tried the Snickers and Heath bar imitations so far, but holy cow (which, btw, you can help by trying one of these vegan bars) are they delicious. Where to find them? Back of the store, far left corner. I found them near there on a display by accident, and it has since changed my life. 🍫
