Gregorio Araneta Avenue

Gregorio Araneta Avenue is a suburban arterial road in the Santa Mesa Heights area of Quezon City, northeastern Metro Manila, Philippines. Constructed in 1985, it is a six-to-eight-lane divided avenue designated as part of Circumferential Road 3 (C-3) and a physical continuation of Sergeant Rivera Street, which travels from Santo Domingo Avenue at its north end near Balintawak in Quezon City and meets N. Domingo Street in the south in San Juan near the border with Santa Mesa, Manila. En route, it intersects with Del Monte Avenue, Quezon Avenue, Eulogio Rodriguez Sr. Avenue and Magsaysay-Aurora Boulevard, passing through barangays Balingasa, Manresa, Masambong, Sienna, Santo Domingo, Talayan, Tatalon, Santol, and Doña Imelda in Quezon City and Progreso in San Juan.

Funeral row

Gregorio Araneta Avenue is best known as the location of some of the biggest funeral parlors in the metropolis. These are the Arlington Memorial Chapels, La Funeraria Paz, Ascension Columbary, Cosmopolitan, Nacional Memorial Homes, and the Sanctuarium (formerly Capitol Memorial). The oldest is Funeraria Nacional, which moved to Gregorio Araneta from its old address in downtown Avenida Rizal in 1968 and is now affiliated with Heritage Park after an extensive renovation. It was followed by La Funeraria Paz in the 1970s and Arlington, which converted the old Thomas Jefferson Library on the avenue into a funeral facility in 1985. ==Automated Trash Rake==

Automated Trash Rake

In 2014, the Department of Science and Technology built an automated garbage rake at the intersection of Araneta Avenue and Mauban Street, functioning as a river cleaning facility, in response to the perennial flooding and garbage problems in the area. Garbage trucks regularly collected garbage captured from the river and those dumped nearby. It is currently under repairs and refurbishment. ==Intersections==
