Lincoln Avenue (Pasadena) - Geography

Geography

Lincoln Avenue originally branched off in a northwestern direction from Fair Oaks Avenue near Chestnut Street, but the construction of Interstate 210 caused the road to be shortened by a block. It now begins on Maple Street. The road continues northwest and is the central road in Pasadena's Lincoln-Villa neighborhood. North of Seco Street, Lincoln Avenue straightens out and becomes a major commercial-industrial artery. The road terminates on Millard Canyon Road in the recently developed La Vina community.
