Re: Task force seeks to rename The Hump, Oct. 2.

After reading about “The Hump,” I would like to suggest a name.

It could be called Washington Hill.

Marine Drive was Washington Avenue, it faces Washington state, its visible to Washington people, and it is the closest street in White Rock for people travelling to Washington State. As it was a hill on Washington Avenue, it keeps that part of history alive.

Better than “Eagle Hill,” or….

I remember the 1950s with some nostalgia, when the sidewalk on “The Hump” was a boardwalk, and it was called “the boardwalk.”

How nice.
