Map

It has a map. Is there a problem with the existing map that one should say that it has no map at all? RussNelson (talk) 14:24, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

So what still exists?

Much information is from [http://home.att.net/~berliner-ultrasonics/limptour.html]. This is a list of known pavement and bridge remnants, not right-of-way.

  • paved trail with 4 bridges (and original pavement?), I-495 to Winchester (cut by I-295)
  • possible original pavement east from Lakeville Road to NSP
  • bridge on Old Courthouse north of Executive
  • possible original pavement on both sides of Willis Avenue
  • possible original pavement north of Westbury Avenue
  • short piece of original pavement at north end of Raymond Court
  • "deadman's curve" accessible from south end of North Herman Avenue; not sure if there's pavement but it's banked
  • bridge in Old Bethpage Village Restoration?? where exactly is this bridge?
  • bridge abutments east of Maxess Road

I happen to live right by an abandoned portion of the parkway in East Williston/Albertson, in Nassau. I could go on there and take pictures of it, if it qualifies to be listed in Wikipedia. :/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.122.80.195 (talk) 21:14, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

:Of course it does. As long as you take the picture and are willing to free it into the GFDL/cc-by-sa-3.0 world. If you can get a nice picture of a culvert, bridge, or overpass, that would be particularly great. --Regents Park (sink with my stocks) 00:29, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

::If you're still reading this, get as many of them as you can. I took some in Half Hollow Hills and Commack back in November 2014, and it's still not enough. I tried to get some in Lake Ronkonkoma, but I couldn't set my camera up in time before the light changed at the end of the road. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 19:26, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
