The 1962 article referenced consistently calls it "Oporto Avenue," not "Oporto Road." A quick search of the Birmingham Public Library digital collections reveals other documents, including city engineering dept. reports, that use the Oporto Avenue name. I don't know if some sources are wrong, the road was never consistently named, or if the road was renamed from Road to Avenue at some point. --[[User:Lkseitz|Lkseitz]] 14:10, 19 May 2014 (PDT) | |||

North and South
Upon this article's creation, we had existing pages linking to Oporto-Madrid Boulevard North and South as different articles. Because the North portion seems rather small compared to the South one and also because of the shared history of the renaming, I just went ahead and left it as one article. Those existing links were made redirects. We can split the article later if we want. On the other hand, because of the long length of the road, I only split the locations down by communities instead of all the way to neighborhoods. --Lkseitz 09:07, 16 May 2014 (PDT)
Oporto Avenue
The 1962 article referenced consistently calls it "Oporto Avenue," not "Oporto Road." A quick search of the Birmingham Public Library digital collections reveals other documents, including city engineering dept. reports, that use the Oporto Avenue name. I don't know if some sources are wrong, the road was never consistently named, or if the road was renamed from Road to Avenue at some point. --Lkseitz 14:10, 19 May 2014 (PDT)
