I lived around the corner about 20 years ago, in the Quarterdeck condos at Riverbend!

I haven't confirmed this, but I'd bet the street named predates the cerveza. Corona was introduced in 1925. My house was built in 1916. The question of when the street was named remains...

I think you have to have a (free) Google account, but I or someone else can add placemarks for any folks who can't do one themselves.

I can't even find the damned 'edit' button on that map page. I suck.

You need to get that street re-named. Something like Mephistopheles Way or Maharaja Lane would be great ;) :D .

Noooo, you don't suck! It's all Google's fault (another time we need that shin-kicking smiley!). I can place your marker for you if you want, just gimme the location.
