Wonderful research & writing, thank you.
11 years after WWII the Interstate System was started under Eisenhower. The highways cast racial lines in concrete through nearly every city & remain today. ‘Wrong side of the tracks’, added ‘wrong side of the highway.’ Reflections of walled towns & cities throughout human history.

@stevewfolds Good point. Everywhere the highways and their noise ran through poor and black neighborhoods.
