In a turnaround, members of the Key West Housing Authority have voted 4-0 this month to change the name of the J.Y. Porter Place Apartments after concerns were raised that the man the housing complex is named after was a leader in the 1921 local chapter of the Ku Klux Klan. Housing Authority board members voted to change the name to honor Lang B. Milian, the first Black man to serve on the housing authority board and who elected to the Key West City Commission in 1971. Now deceased, Milian was only the second Black man to serve on the Key West City Commission in the 20th Century at that time. He is also the father of current Housing Authority board member Annette Mobley.
