Well, that’s an unfortunate name.
(CNN)The Swastika Acres neighborhood of Cherry Hills Village, a town just outside Denver, will get a new name after a unanimous city council vote.
The new name will be Old Cherry Hills, CNN affiliate KDVR reported.The area had once been home to the Denver Land Swastika Company, a company that chose its name before Nazis adopted the swastika symbol.Though the name doesn’t appear on any visible signs in the community, City Councilman Dan Sheldon told KDVR the name still appears in real estate documents.
Probably a socialist hippie commune looking to revive the “glory days” of the socialists in Germany in 1930s….
“Probably a socialist hippie commune looking to revive the “glory days” of the socialists in Germany in 1930s….” Really? Those history classes you skipped at UW-M would come in helpful now, eh?
FYI: The Nazis were fascists, not socialists. But you already knew that, right?
