The construction of the Alexandria Corniche dates back to 1925 and took about ten years to build it in six stages, where the first stage was established in the area between the chain and El-shatabi with a distance of 786 meters, the second stage was from El-shatabi to camp shezar, the third was from Camp shezar to sporting, the fourth stage was from Sporting to Cleopatra, and the fifth stage was from Cleopatra to Stanley passing through the Mostafa Pasha area where there are camps of the British occupation army of Egypt at that time. Wally obstructed the work of the Corniche at that stage, but the construction work was completed.
The last stage was from Stanley to the western walls of the park Palace in the current Mandara area. the Corniche works were completed in 1934 and officially opened in 1935. in 2001, the Corniche Road witnessed the largest and widest modification that has occurred in its history since its establishment, where nine beaches were completely backfilled until the road was widened and reached from 8 meters to 20 meters and more, where the road began to enter the sea sand and this time witnessed the construction of the Stanley Bridge, and the road was widened in the distance between Victoria to the beach.
