A block on New York City's Upper West Side where Miles Davis composed some of jazz's greatest works has been renamed in his honor.
Yesterday (May 26), hundreds came out for the unveiling ceremony of a street sign titled "Miles Davis Way," officially marking a stretch of 77th Street between Riverside and West End. For nearly 25 years, up until the mid-1980s, the legendary jazz trumpeter lived in an apartment building at 312 West 77th Street.
