Oh puh-leeeze!
Most people would come to the conclusion that
any street ( or city or state )
that was named "Washington" was named for our first president.
Maybe there is a "Washington Street" somewhere named after Wally Washington, but I doubt it.
Just for fun, I googled "washington." There are three pages of nothing but things
named for old George or links to the actual guy. Wally is nowhere to be found.
( We could have the same argument about Larry Lincoln, BTW. )
