Apartment Honored?

Jackie Robinson's apartment when he played for Montreal in the International League prior to joining the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947 is being honored. Really.
U-S Diplomats will unveil a plaque at the apartment.
I'm all for honoring Jackie Robinson. What he did for race relations in this country can't be denied or measured. But by honoring a place where he stayed for a summer? I think we are getting carried away.
Why not honor the car dealership where he bought his first car? Why not honor the first elevator he rode in that was open to both whites and blacks? How about honoring the gas station where he frequented during spring training in Vero Beach.
