The corner of Waltoffer and Washington Avenues in North Bellmore is now known as Lt. Steven Sorger Avenue, reports Jesse Coburn in Newsday.
A dedication ceremony was held last week to honor a local FDNY officer who died of World Trade Center-related illness on March 11 of this year. Lt. Sorger was 62 and spent months on the pile, searching for remains after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
