Corona Founders Monument
Corona Founders Monument

The Corona Founders Monument is a monument built in 1936 to the founding fathers of the City of Corona in the Riverside County, California. The monument was designated a California Historic Landmark (No.738) on June 6, 1960. The monument is in the Corona City Park in the 100 block of 6th Street of Corona, California. The founding fathers at first called the city South Riverside after the company they started the South Riverside Land and Water Company.The founding fathers of the City of Corona on May 4, 1886, bought land from the Rancho La Sierra and the Rancho Temescal Mexican land grants. On this land the founding fathers planted orange trees and lemon trees. By 1912 Corona have 5,000 acres of lemon, orange, grapefruit, limes and tangerines groves. With the groves came packing and processing plants. In Corona about 80% of all job were in the citrus industry. The citrus industry continued in Corona into the 1980s. Corona had the title of Lemon Capital of the World, but lost it to Ventura County, California. Corona Heritage Park & Museum at 510 W Foothill Parkway, Corona, California had displays about the Corona citrus industry. On July 13, 1896, South Riverside incorporate and changed the city name to Corona. Corona is Spanish for “Crown”. H.C. Kellogg laid the city out in a one-mile diameter circle in 1887, with Grand Boulevard three miles around it. To the North of the circle was a railroad station and citrus packing houses. To the South acres of citrus groves of what was called "Queen Colony'.On May 4, 1886, for $110,000 they started the South Riverside Land and Water Company with the purchase of: From Rancho La Sierra 11,5100 acres from the Yorba family. From Rancho Temescal 5,000 acres from the Serrano family.Counting for inflation $110,000 in 1886 would be almost $3 million in 2018 dollars.

Andrew Carnegie Library (Corona, California)

The Andrew Carnegie Library in Corona, California in Riverside County, California, at 8th and Main Streets, was a Carnegie library built in 1905–06. Known also as the Old Corona Public Library, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. The building was demolished in 1978, but apparently still remains listed on the National Register. The demolition of the building long remained a sore point, with many who fought for the building's preservation. The suggested alternative use for the property was as a fish-fry restaurant, which was never built. In 2010, the property was still an empty lot.It was a Classical Revival work of architect Franklin Pierce Burnham, and was Corona's only example of Classical Revival style. The building served as Corona's public library from 1906 until 1971.A new 19,000 square feet (1,800 m2) library was opened in 1971 at Sixth and Main Streets. The library was expanded following a bond vote in 1988. A 1971 photo available from the Corona Public Library shows a library interior, apparently from the modern replacement building.Its architectural significance "was acknowledged by its placement on the National Register of Historic Places. However, the building stood 'boarded up and vacant while the city raged about what was to be done with the building' from 1971 to 1978. It was demolished in 1978 and the Heritage Room at the new library was 'started as a compromise between keeping the city's history alive and having a new library building.' Corona's library history dates from an 1893 WCTU reading room, replaced by an 1895 YMCA library, in its turn taken over by the Women's Improvement Club and finally transferred to the city in 1900. The early libraries occupied a succession of rented rooms until Carnegie funding of $10,000 was obtained in March,1905. This was increased to $11,500 due to the intercession of J. A. Flagler of New York, who apparently had ties in Corona in addition to being a close friend of Andrew Carnegie. Ground was broken in August and the building was dedicated July 2, 1906. The building was demolished in 1978."

Temescal Butterfield stage station
Temescal Butterfield stage station

The Temescal Butterfield stage station is the site where the Butterfield Overland Mail stagecoach stopped to deliver mail and get fresh horses in what is now Riverside County, California. The Temescal Butterfield stage station was designated a California Historic Landmark (No.188) on June 20, 1935. The site of the Temescal Butterfield stage station is currently near the City of Corona along Temescal Canyon Road. The first stagecoach with mail and passengers departed Tipton, Missouri on September 15, 1858. The stagecoach stopped at the Temescal Butterfield stage station and arrived at the Butterfield Overland Mail Company Los Angeles Building on October 7, 1858. The Butterfield Overland Mail Company closed in 1861.The Temescal Butterfield stage station was built five miles (8 km) north of the Temescal Hot Springs, ten miles (16 km) north of Rancho La Laguna station and twenty miles (32 km) south of the Chino Rancho station. The Temescal Butterfield stage station was "at the foot of the Temescal hills, a splendid place to camp, wood and water plenty, and protected from the winds." Temescal had its own post office from February 12, 1861, to November 12, 1861. Around this location, the settlement of Temescal grew over the next few decades. By 1860, Greenwade's Place at Temescal, three miles (4.8 km) north of the stage station, was a polling place for southwestern San Bernardino County. Voting irregularities there that year resulted in a court case between the candidates for a California State Assembly seat. The trial was so contentious it included the shooting of Bethel Coopwood, one of the opposing lawyers by the other in court, before the results could be determined.
