Street co-naming ceremony honors Judge Hubert T. Delany
The northeast corner of West 145th Street and Riverside Drive was recently co-named for Hubert T. Delany (1901–90), who graduated from the City College of New York and New York University Law School, and served as an assistant U.S. attorney. He was an advisor to Dr. Martin Luther King and Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., among others, and one of the first African American judges appointed in New York City in the early 20th century.
