Trump Allies, Administration Rush to Name Things After Him
Palm Beach County commissioners unanimously approved the ceremonial renaming of a 4-mile road stretch linking the airport to Mar-a-Lago, with signage expected soon.
- On Jan. 16, 2026, President Donald Trump attended a dedication ceremony at Mar-a-Lago for renaming the Southern Boulevard segment between Kirk Road and South Ocean Boulevard.
- State lawmakers approved the renaming last year, backed by Gov. Ron DeSantis' signed legislation; Palm Beach County commissioners voted 7-0 six months earlier and West Palm Beach city commissioners gave final approval in early December.
- At Mar-a-Lago, supporters and officials gathered including Sara Baxter, Palm Beach County Mayor, Meg Weinberger, Florida state representative, Brian Mast, U.S. Congressman, and Eric Trump, Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization, with a golden road sign and map showing the 4-mile stretch.
- With the president's visit came routine road closures and flight restrictions, a section of South Ocean Boulevard closed Friday through Monday night, and signage is expected in coming months while Google Maps already shows the Trump designation.
- The renaming drew heated public comment and objections from West Palm residents, while social media critics flagged a ceremony gaffe and the county approved the PBSO Motorman Highway honorary designation for Corporal Luis Paez, Deputy Sheriff Dan Diaz, and Deputy Sheriff Butch Waller.
