Rio Grande Gas Station
Description:
This corner is now part of the Melrose Underpass. It had the first stop sign in Placentia. The street has had several names
but in reality was named after Richard Melrose, an Anaheim attorney who worked with A.S. Bradford in his many endeavors for
Placentia. Richard Melrose is the same man after whom Melrose, in Hollywood, is named.
