Abstract
We present results from our redshift survey of the Corona Borealis Supercluster. Using the Norris Multifiber Spectrograph on the Palomar 200-inch telescope, we have obtained redshifts for 528 galaxies in the supercluster and for 726 field galaxies with redshifts extending to z ~ 0.7. In this contribution, we discuss the structure and dynamics of the supercluster and the luminosity functions of the local field and of the supercluster.
