A new road in north London is reportedly being named after tragic singer Amy Winehouse as a tribute to her.
Amy died of alcohol poisoning in July, 2011 at the age of 27, reported Sun online.
Her father Mitch Winehouse, who runs the Amy Winehouse Foundation, is reportedly working on a statue of the late singer to be put up in Camden.
The authorities in north London are considering to name a new road as Winehouse street or Winehouse way in her memory.
"To think that our surname would be indelibly linked with London through the naming of a street after Amy is remarkable. We're a London family through and through and it would be a tremendous honour if we do become a literal part of the fabric of this great city," Mitch said.
It was recently announced that a documentary will capture the life and career of Amy.
