Raoul Wallenberg Place
"Raoul Wallenberg's mission of mercy on behalf of the United States behind enemy lines during World War II is unprececented in the history of mankind. He is responsible for saving tens of thousands of lives during the Holocaust. A shining light in a dark and depraved world, he proved that one person who has the courage to care can make a difference."
This street was named in honor of Raoul Wallenberg by Act of Congress on December 19, 1985.
