Maybe I'm misremembering things but....

I think it's important to mention that the street was originally named 'Long Live Chiang Kai-Shek Street' rather than merely Chiang Kai-Shek Street. This made the street renaming less controversial than it otherwise would have been. Also. he renamed a few other streets Shi-Min Jie for example.... -- Roadrunner

OK..my bad. I didn't think they would keep 'Long Live Chiang Kai-Shek Street' around for so long after his death. I really don't know this.

A Huaxia Economics article wrote that it was: G'uan-ch'ian Road (館前路) → Fu-ch'ian Road (府前路) → Chieh-shou Road (介壽路) → Katagalan Avenue (凱達格蘭大道).
Despite the article's informal tone and bias, I believe the names are correct. Although it seems to have missed Chiang Kai-shek Street (蔣介石路) that Roadrunner spoke of.
