Yesterday, May 21st, Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry unveiled the first of 30 planned signs showing the 1915 and 1928 alignments of the Lincoln Highway through town. It was placed by the Lincoln Highway Bridge on Harrison Street, north of downtown.
Because of one way streets and road closures, however, it will be impossible to drive either alignment. Mayor Henry said that many people don't know much about this important road.
The signs are part of National Historic Preservation Month.
Just last month, I tried to drive Lincoln Highway through Fort Wayne, but really got lost. And that after the great signage I saw in nearby Ohio between Delphos and Van Wert. There must have been a sign every mile.
Good News for LH Fans. --RoadDog
RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
