Sierra Madre Boulevard is a 6.6-mile (10.6 km) long road connecting five suburbs of Pasadena, California; Arcadia, Sierra Madre, Hastings Ranch, East Pasadena, and San Marino. For the most part, it is a winding road divided by a grassy median, but the part between Pasadena and Arcadia is a two-lane road. Built around an interurban line of the Pacific Electric Railway. The smaller and older portion of the road was originally Central Avenue in Sierra Madre, built some time in the 1860s or '70s. The road forms a "┌" shape, it continues in the south as San Marino Ave, and ends at Elevado Ave in the east.
The section of Sierra Madre Boulevard between Washington Boulevard and Sierra Madre Villa Avenue is the end of the Tournament of Roses Parade.
