Rizal Avenue Extension in East Rembo |location=Makati }} Kalayaan Avenue is a major east-west route in Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines. For most of its length, it runs parallel to J.P. Rizal Avenue to the north from East Rembo near Fort Bonifacio to Singkamas Village by the border with Santa Ana, Manila. It is interrupted by Bel-Air Village between Amapola Street and Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA). The avenue is designated as a component of Radial Road 4 (R-4) of the Metro Manila Arterial Road System. ==History== Kalayaan Avenue was formerly called Pasig Line Street. Santa Ana district in Manila still bears that name for the street. It followed the defunct tram line of the Manila Electric Railway (operated by Meralco) for most of its length. The line was built in 1908 but was heavily damaged during World War II.〔(Laguna Railways: Pasig Line ) published by the Railways and Industrial Heritage Society of the Philippines, Inc.; accessed 2013-10-12.〕〔(Pictures and thoughts from a break ) published by Panaderos; accessed 2013-10-12.〕 Subsequent development of the Bel-Air Village by Ayala Corporation in 1957 has led to the closure of a segment of Pasig Line west of EDSA.〔(History and Facts ) published by Barangay Bel-Air; accessed 2013-10-12.〕 During the term of President Ferdinand Marcos, the road was improved and was renamed to Imelda Avenue after his wife and first lady, Imelda Marcos. Following the overthrow of the Marcos regime, the Makati government renamed the avenue to ''Kalayaan'' (Filipino word for "Freedom"). 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「Kalayaan Avenue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
