Smith has a street named after him

The “West Philadelphia, born and raised” actor and musician Will Smith is getting quite the recognition from his city.

In a Feb. 27 resolution from the City Council of Philadelphia, Smith will now have the 2000 block of North 59th Street in West Philadelphia named after him. It will now be called “Will Smith Way.”

The resolution said it aims to honor the impact of Smith’s career on Philadelphia, as it has brought “global attention” to the City of Brotherly Love.

Smith, 56, is a four-time Grammy-winning artist and Oscar-winning actor.
