It is situated in Quezon City and runs between Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) to the north and Quezon Avenue to the south. It was named in memory of U.S. president Franklin Delano Roosevelt.[1] The avenue and the adjacent area are also referred to by local residents as Muñoz, being the site of a popular wet market, the Muñoz Market, located at Roosevelt and EDSA. The market was named after its owner Demetrio Muñoz, a philanthropist, businessman and a presidential adviser during the term of Diosdado Macapagal from the province of Pampanga.[2] At the opposite end of Roosevelt on Quezon Avenue is Fisher Mall, the city's newest shopping center. Roosevelt Avenue is also home to the transmitter of television station Intercontinental Broadcasting Corporation (IBC-13), which will soon to be dismantled. In 2010, a bill was authored in Congress by Quezon City District I Representative Vicente Crisologo renaming the avenue after his predecessor, former Representative Reynaldo Calalay. This bill is still pending with the Senate Committee on Public Works and Highways as of April 2012.[3] Route descriptionRoosevelt Avenue is located northeast of Manila and runs for roughly 2.9 kilometers (1.8 miles) along a north-south axis. Starting at its southern terminus at the junction with Quezon Avenue in barangay Santa Cruz, the road heads north toward barangay Paraiso providing access to Damayan, site of the old Santuario de San Pedro Bautista church of the former pueblo of San Francisco del Monte built in 1593. It intersects with Del Monte Avenue from where it continues on a straight path north through the mixed residential and industrial villages of San Antonio and Paltok where a Coca-Cola plant stands next to the IBC transmitter. The road ends at the intersection with EDSA by the Muñoz public market and Walter Mart North Edsa. North of EDSA, Roosevelt continues as Congressional Avenue heading northeast to Project 8 and Culiat area. It is served by Roosevelt LRT Station of the Manila LRT Line 1. Villages
