NO

The person who it's named after now literally helped to create the Charles River riverbank area and parks. Much more significant contributions to the Boston area and the immediate area in general.

I have no issue with Obama, but not that road. Pick another. I wouldn't even care if it was something like renaming Comm Ave.

If there's any road in Boston that should never be renamed, it's Comm Ave.

So that means he should have a major road in boston named after him? Sorry to tell you but Harvard could give two sh*ts about Boston.

Don’t name anything after a living person -is just a common sense.

You just never know - what if he commits a horrible crime?
Or something untoward would be uncovered?

Why the rush?
Isn’t Illinois, Hawaii, etc have the right of first refusal?
