Map of Corona

In this map taken from Google Maps, my hometown of Corona, California is shown. In this map, one may clearly see two major arteries that run through, the 91 and 15 freeways. The major streets are highlighted in a light yellow. Additionally, parks, forests, or golf courses are seen in a shade of green. The large green area in the southwest corner of the map is the Cleveland National Forest. The shading of this map is quite interesting. The colors for busy streets, side streets, parks, airports are consistent. The cartographer clearly has an understanding of the busier streets in Corona based on the shading of streets. Lastly, an interesting thing to note is the circular street in the center of the map. The street's name is Grand Boulevard. The reason to note this is that in Spanish Corona means crown. Thus, this street was very important in naming the town.
