| They are
the highways once used but now forgotten. They are hidden in brush
and overgrowth as a result of a bypass years old. They were once
grand but now broken into pieces. They carried our history and now
we tell theirs, they are Carolina Lost - The Roads!
Central
Highway - Point Lookout ---Take a hike along an
abandoned 3.5 mile stretch of former NC 10 and US 70. Charlotte's Independence Blvd. ---The Queen City's and the State's first urban highway, Independence Blvd. has been changed greatly as a result of Charlotte's growth. I-85 Gastoina Connector ---A one time temporary end in the 1960s, the ramps were abandoned in the early 1990s. Old US 220 - Asbury Church Road ---A quiet old piece of US 220 found in Montgomery County. The
Road to Nowhere ---The story of the over 60 year
old saga over completion of the North Shore Road.
