Run-DMC Gets Their Own Street
The New York City Council approved a new bill today (June 30) that a major thoroughfare Run-DMC JMJ Way, in Hollis Queens, will be named after legendary rap group Run-DMC.
The bill, which was introduced by Deputy Majority Leader Leroy Comrie (D-27) passed today during the Council's Stated Meeting in City Hall.
Once Mayor Michael Bloomberg signs the bill into law, the corner of 205th Street and Hollis Avenue will officially be renamed after the pioneering Hip-Hop group.
Joseph "Reverend Run" Simmons, Darryl "DMC" McDaniels and the late Jason "Jam Master Jay" Mizell grew up in Hollis, a borough of New York immortalized on tracks like "Hollis Crew" "Raising Hell," and the holiday anthem "Christmas in Hollis."
