Huntington Boulevard, located in Fresno, California has a rich history in the valley. In the early 1900’s, Albert GravesWishon and Henry E. Huntington developed a plan to use electricity, a newly available luxury available to homeowners, and streetcars to enhance the lifestyle of Fresno’s prominent residents. Henry E. Huntington, a streetcar tycoon, developed the boulevard with wide streets that allowed for streetcar travel to several destinations in downtown Fresno. Today, the beautiful tree-lined boulevard is meticulously maintained and still carries the original air of regality.
