Interesting point of fact, the names of the streets where I live are all named after astronauts....Lovell, Schirra, Glenn, Wolfe, so on and so forth. Houses broke ground in 1970, we were able to inhabit in 1972. A lasting tribute, I'd say.

Correcting myself. We were first occupants on street, and that was 9/8/73.

The sight of a grinding wheel sitting next to oxygen cylinders is somewhat disturbing! I also see evidence to suggest that theft of socks amongst astronauts was somewhat rife at this period of time.
