Singer and actress Vanessa Williams payed tribute to Horne's legacy during the renaming ceremony with a performance of "Stormy Weather." Horne's granddaughter Jenny Lumet shared with People, "I didn't realize how emotional it was gonna be, and now I'm kind of weeping buckets. My grandma's a Bed–Stuy girl, and we're a New York family. So to have her always be in New York City in the theater district, it means everything."
Horne was a recipient of numerous Tony and Grammy awards and was also an honorary member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. She passed away in 2010 at the age of 92.
