Thank you Andy Dingley for taking the time to comment. If I may make a distinction, this article makes reference to the district, not the road per se. Should this article be renamed in that case? Regards,

I'm in the UK and have no connection with Pakistan. Napier Road is the only place I could name in Karachi. It's known by that name, not as a longer form as "District". Sources seem to bear out this personal observation.

[1] establishes that Napier Road, Karachi is a well known red light district. (unlike Dingley, I had not previously heard of it. I won't ask how he did.) Linked from
Prostitution in Pakistan. I see no need to call it the Napier Road district, it's a common English usage for districts to be called by the name of a street.
