“Theodore Roosevelt called it the world's most beautiful drive”
Grand View Drive is a 2.52 mile meandering pleasure driveway constructed in 1903. The "world's most beautiful drive," as President Theodore Roosevelt referred to it in a visit to Peoria in 1910, offers visitors numerous panoramic scenic views of the Illinois River Valley and and the chance to view many historic and remarkable homes lining it. The drive is especially beautiful in autumn, with the ever-changing colors of fall leaves
"Sport event" unless you bike it (would be a challenge even for Lance) but the speed limit is only 25mph so no sporty stuff!
I don't know that if agree and call it the worlds best drive- but it is beautiful... Probably misplaced as a
Beautiful views. Gorgeous homes - the kind you’d expect to see on Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.
