Galivan is a location in Orange County, California. Most internet-based mapping websites locate Galivan as a neighborhood or small locale near the cities of Mission Viejo and Laguna Niguel, about two miles north of the Interstate 5-California 73 interchange. Coordinates for the location are N 33.569 and W -117.674. While Galivan's status varies from map to map, it is almost always located at the spot where old U.S. Highway 101 (now Camino Capistrano) crossed over the Santa Fe railroad tracks. Prior to the construction of Interstate 5, a two-lane road was sufficient to carry the traffic through the then-rural area. The "Galivan Overhead" transferred the highway from one side of the railroad tracks to the other. While the bridge no longer exists, the portion of old Highway 101 is still mostly intact, and a similar bridge (designed by the same architect) can be found in Del Mar, California, also on a portion of old Highway 101, and also used to carry the roadway over the railroad tracks. Nothing remains in the area that suggests if there was ever a village there, as the surrounding area has been heavily urbanized. == Sources == *http://www.gbcnet.com/ushighways/US101/101pics5.html *http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?lat=33.56944&mapit=Map+It&lon=-117.67361&size=m&s=25&datum=WGS84 *http://search.blossom.com/geturl?&o=0p&i851&KEY=highway+101&URL=http://www.sandiegohistory.org/journal/98fall/photos.htm 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Galivan, California」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
