It is an 8-10 lane divided avenue designated as part of Circumferential Road 3 (C-3) which travels from Sergeant Rivera Street, at its north end in Balintawak, and meets Nicanor Domingo Street in the south in San Juan near the border with Santa Mesa, City of Manila. En route, it intersects with Del Monte Avenue, Quezon Avenue, Eulogio Rodriguez Sr. Avenue and Magsaysay-Aurora Boulevard passing through the villages of Manresa, Masambong, Sienna, Santo Domingo, Talayan, Tatalon, Doña Imelda, Santol, Barangay 596 (Santa Mesa) and Rivera (San Juan). The avenue lies in a flood-prone zone in close proximity to the San Francisco del Monte and San Juan Rivers. It was named after lawyer and landowner Gregorio S. Araneta who owned the Santa Mesa Heights Subdivision on which the avenue was built.〔(History and Important Events of Sta. Teresita Parish ) published by the National Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes in Quezon City; accessed 2013-12-19.〕 ==Funeral row== Gregorio Araneta Avenue is best known as the location of some of the biggest funeral parlors in the metropolis. These are the Arlington Memorial Chapels, La Funeraria Paz, Ascension Columbary, Nacional Memorial Homes, and The Sanctuarium (formerly Capitol Memorial). The oldest is Funeraria Nacional which moved to Gregorio Araneta from its old address in downtown ''Avenida Rizal'' in 1968. It was followed by La Funeraria Paz in the 1970s and Arlington, which converted the old Thomas Jefferson Library on the avenue into a funeral facility, in 1985.〔(QC's Araneta Avenue: Showcase strip for the Filipino 'burol' ) published by the Philippine Daily Inquirer; accessed 2013-12-19.〕 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「Gregorio Araneta Avenue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
