‘Swastika Acres’ no more: US locality changes name

COLARADO: A Colorado city has voted to drop the name ‘Swastika Acres’ from a subdivision.
The neighborhood in the Denver suburb was named Swastika Acres decades before the symbol was adopted by the Nazis. Councilman Dan Sheldon spearheaded the change and says the name comes from the Denver Land Swastika Company that divided area land into plots near the turn of the 20th Century. The neighbourhood’s name has been changed to ‘Old Cherry Hills’.
