KC’s Troost Avenue should be renamed for Martin Luther King - KansasCity.com: Numerous efforts have been made in the last decade or so to change the perceptions of Troost, and progress is being made. I understand the impulse to want to turn “Troost’’ around. But might progress along one of Kansas City’s major north-south thoroughfares have a better chance if the street were named for a champion of peace, justice and racial harmony?
