After his death, West 106th Street was officially renamed Duke Ellington Boulevard. A large memorial to Ellington, created by sculptor Robert Graham, was dedicated in 1997 in New York's Central Park, near Fifth Avenue and 110th Street, an intersection named

At that intersection, traffic from New York Avenue in either direction may turn south onto Interstate 395, but traffic on northbound Interstate 395 may turn only right (east) onto New York Avenue. At its eastern end, New York Avenue NE becomes the John Hanson Highway (U.S. Route 50 in Maryland). On the east side of Mount Vernon Square, New York Avenue crosses 7th Street NW.
