A couple of attempts have failed -- renaming Sky Harbor airport to
Barry Goldwater (or the compromise, Sky Harbor-Barry Goldwater) got
dropped.  People here like the rather unique Sky Harbor name.  It's
one of the few airports not named after a person or place.  Terminal 4
at Sky Harbor is the Barry Goldwater terminal already.

There was also a move to rename the Squaw Peak Parkway (AZ 51) to the
Barry Goldwater Parkway.  (Prior to that, the Ronald Reagan Parkway
was a candidate.)  That move seems to be dead for now.
