*When the intent to create the Josephine D. Randall Junior Museum on Corona Heights was announced in 1947, we residents of Eureka Valley were puzzled by the location shown on the map as none of us had ever heard of “Corona Heights”. We called it “Rocky”; people in other parts of town referred to it as “Rock Hill” or “Red Rock Hill”.
