Berry Gordy Jr., founder of the legendary Motown record label will have a Detroit street named after him. The Detroit City Council unanimously voted to rename a section of W. Grand Boulevard to “Berry Gordy Jr. Boulevard.” The section affectionately known as “Hitsville USA” – stretching from the John C. Lodge freeway to Grand River Avenue – includes the block where the Motown recording studio and Gordy's former residence is located. Legendary Motown acts include Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross and The Supremes, The Jackson Five, The Four Tops and the Temptations.
