Figueroa Street (left), Harbor Freeway (focus), and S Broadway (right) night ethereal from the south, with downtown Los Angeles somewhere far off. Figueroa Street turns and become less apparent at the University of Southern California.

One of the more drawn out roads in the city, it runs in a north/south course for in excess of 30 miles (48 km) from its southern end at Harry Bridges Boulevard in the Wilmington neighborhood to Chevy Chase Drive in the city of La Cañada Flintridge at the north end.

From its south end at Harry Bridges Boulevard to Downtown Los Angeles, Figueroa Street runs north corresponding to the Harbor Freeway (Interstate 110) in South Los Angeles.

The northern piece of the road resumes at San Fernando Road in Cypress Park. An early directing of Figueroa Street in this space was initially important for U.S. Highway 66, today a piece of the Arroyo Seco Parkway (State Route 110).[clarification needed] The prominent Figueroa Street Tunnels were once a piece of that equivalent stretch of street.

History
Entry of Grammy Museum at L.A. Live

Figueroa was initially called Calle de los Chapules (or Grasshopper Street). Chapules (or chapul in the particular structure) isn't the standard Spanish word for grasshopper which is saltamonte. Chapul is from the Nahuatl of Durango and Nayarit (otherwise called Mexicanero) and implies grasshopper.[3] Later during the 1880s it became known as "Pearl Street". Figueroa Street initially was a couple of squares west of Pearl yet joined Pearl Street further south. Pearl Street was changed to Figueroa and the northern part of the old Figueroa Street was renamed Boylston.[4] The segment of what is currently Figueroa in Highland Park above Avenue 39 was known as "Pasadena Avenue" until Figueroa was reached out through Elysian Park. The part of what is presently Figueroa between the Los Angeles River and Avenue 39 was initially known as Dayton Avenue until the Arroyo Parkway went through.[5] Prior to development of the Harbor Freeway, Figueroa St. conveyed U.S. Highway 6 to Pacific Coast Highway south from the Four-Level Interchange.

Until 1977, the Guinness Book of Records asserted Figueroa as the longest road on the planet, in line with essayist Jay Myers, it was replaced by Yonge Street in Toronto.[6]

Ruta

Se trata de una de las calles más largas de la ciudad, con una extensión en largo de 40 km desde su terminal sur en Harry Bridges Boulevard, en el distrito de Wilmington, hasta Chevy Chase Drive, en la ciudad de La Cañada Flintridge, al norte. Desde su extremo sur en Harry Bridges Boulevard hasta el centro de Los Ángeles, corre paralela al norte de la autopista Harbor (Interstate 110) en el sur de Los Ángeles. Al sur del distrito financiero de Los Ángeles, pasa por lugares conocidos como la Universidad del Sur de California, el Centro de Convenciones de Los Ángeles y el Staples Center. Después de pasar por el centro de Los Ángeles cerca de Bunker Hill y South Park, la parte sur de Figueroa St. termina cerca del cruce de Sunset Boulevard sobre la Arroyo Seco Parkway (SR 110) en el barrio chino. La parte norte de la calle se reanuda en San Fernando Road en Cypress Park. Una ruta temprana de Figueroa en esta área fue originalmente parte de la ruta 66 de los EE. UU., Hoy parte de la ruta verde Arroyo Seco (ruta estatal 110).

Los túneles de Figueroa Street fueron una vez parte de ese mismo tramo de carretera. Después de reanudar en San Fernando Road, Figueroa continúa corriendo más o menos paralela a Arroyo Seco Parkway hasta llegar a York Boulevard en Highland Park. Luego, se dirige hacia el norte hasta su término cerca del vertedero Scholl Canyon, justo después de su unión con la autopista Ventura (ruta estatal 134) en Eagle Rock. Una continuación corta y desconectada de la vía principal se extiende desde un área residencial al sur de Marengo Drive en Glendale para terminar en Chevy Chase Drive, justo por encima del límite de la ciudad en La Cañada Flintridge.1​

Los primeros mapas producidos por el Club de automóviles del sur de California midieron las distancias a Los Ángeles desde la sede del club en la intersección de Figueroa con Adams Boulevard.

Historia

Figueroa originalmente se llamaba Calle de los Chapules (Grasshopper Street en inglés). Más tarde, en la década de 1880, se conoció como "Pearl Street", Calle Perla en español. La sección de lo que ahora es Figueroa en Highland Park sobre la avenida 39 se conocía como "Pasadena Avenue" hasta que Figueroa se extendió a través de Elysian Park. La porción de lo que ahora es Figueroa entre el río Los Ángeles y la avenida 39 se conocía originalmente como avenida Dayton hasta que la ruta del Arroyo pasó.2​
