Corydon and Roblin
editThe Corydon Avenue segment of the route is home to Winnipeg's Little Italy District, and is currently served by the 18 North Main-Corydon Winnipeg Transit bus route. The avenue was named after Corydon Partlow Brown, a member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1878 to 1888.[3]
The more westerly Roblin Boulevard segment serves as the main street for the area of Charleswood. It was named for former Manitoba premier Rodmond Roblin, grandfather of Duff Roblin.[3]
