Garden Grove: Christ Cathedral and Little Saigon's Eastern Edge
Garden Grove sits in the center of Orange County, bordered by Anaheim, Westminster, and Santa Ana. The city was incorporated in 1956 as a general-law municipality, primarily agricultural at the time. Citrus groves and strawberry fields covered most of the land area through the 1960s before tract housing and commercial strips replaced them. The city's Korean Business District along Garden Grove Boulevard and the portions of Little Saigon extending east from Westminster mark two of the most significant commercial ethnic enclaves in Southern California.
The building originally known as the Crystal Cathedral, designed by Philip Johnson and completed in 1980 for televangelist Robert Schuller, remains the dominant architectural landmark. Its exterior of more than 10,000 silvered-glass panes was commissioned when Schuller's Hour of Power broadcast reached a peak global audience. Following financial collapse and bankruptcy of the Crystal Cathedral Ministries in 2010, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange purchased the campus. After extensive renovation it reopened in 2019 as Christ Cathedral, the diocesan seat.
The Grove District along Harbor Boulevard functions as a hotel and entertainment corridor adjacent to Disneyland in neighboring Anaheim. Many Disneyland visitors stay in Garden Grove rather than Anaheim due to lower hotel rates and the short drive or shuttle ride. Garden Grove also hosts the Strawberry Festival every May, a tradition that predates the city's incorporation and celebrates what was once a primary local crop.
