Lincoln Highway - Eastern Terminus

This Adventure Lab is part of a series that will highlight the Lincoln Highway that ran from coast to coast in the early 1900's. The idea of the Lincoln Highway came from the fertile mind of Carl Fisher, the man also responsible for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Miami Beach. With help from fellow industrialists Frank Seiberling and Henry Joy, an improved, hard-surfaced road was envisioned that would stretch almost 3400 miles from coast to coast, New York to San Francisco, over the shortest practical route. The Lincoln Highway Association was created in 1913 to promote the road using private and corporate donations. The idea was embraced by an enthusiastic public, and many other named roads across the country followed. This Adventure Lab will follow the short trail from Times Square to the Hudson River. It will also include some other historical sites and points of interest along the way.
