I-81 through Syracuse NY is being torn down. There is already a bypass, I-481 that loops around the city to the East to connect with I-90. Very similar story -

I-81 through Syracuse NY is being torn down. There is already a bypass, I-481 that loops around the city to the East to connect with I-90. Very similar story - the highway divides Syracuse University from the poor Black neighborhoods. It's a scar through the middle of town. I'm very excited to see how the city heals around it.
