President Theodore Roosevelt is said to have proclaimed it the "World's Most Beautiful Drive" during a 1910 visit.
Two and a half mile scenic road with adjacent park areas through Peoria and Peoria Heights, Illinois. Wonderful views of the Illinois River. Was added to the National Register of Historic Places as an historic district in 1996.
A large amount of the land on the valley side is owned by the Peoria Park District and is undeveloped except for park benches.
Of particular note, the drive is said to have been one of the first "linear parks" of its time.
