Grand Boulevard (Corona)

A residential neighborhood at Grand Boulevard and Victoria Street in the early 1900s.

Grand Boulevard is a beltway in Corona, California that was recognized by the National Register of Historic Places in 2011 as a part of the Grand Boulevard Circle Historic District.[1]

It is an ordinary surface street that circles the city's historic downtown area and is approximately half a mile from the city center. It is unusual for being perfectly circular. The street was designed by Hiram Clay Kellogg (In memory of him, there is a street in Corona named Kellogg St). Grand Blvd. was home to international races in 1913, 1914, and 1916. Grand is easily accessible through an exit on California State Route 91. The street is currently part of Corona's Historic District.
