- I-390 was originally supposed to continue north instead of veering west. This would have taken it along the ["Clinton Avenue"] corridor right through the heart of ["Swillburg"] and the ["South Wedge"]. Needless to say, the kibosh got put down on that plan pretty quickly once houses started going down. A mini-park at Sycamore, Avon, and Fountain Streets (["Otto Henderberg Square"]) exists where some of the homes used to be. The vacant land between Broadway, I-490, Goodman and Alexander Streets is also a legacy of this aborted plan.	+ I-390 was originally supposed to continue north instead of veering west.

Line 1:	Line 1:
- Interstate/Route/Highway 390 is the major north-south highway, leading from Rochester south to Corning and ["Dansville"] NY. Along the way, it will take you past ["Letchworth State Park"]. The Interstate portion begins in the south at [wiki:Wikipedia:Interstate_86_(east) I-86], goes north quite a ways, crosses the ["Thruway"] south of Rochester, and then veers westerly to terminate at ["Interstate 490" I-490]. Not to let a good thing die, the pavement itself continues north as Route 390 to the ["Lake Ontario State Parkway"], where it really does end due to a rather significant lake.	+ Interstate 390/NYS Route 390 is a north-south expressway, running from the Lake Ontario State Parkway ["Lake Ontario State Parkway"] in the Town of Greece south to I-86/NYS Route 17 [wiki:Wikipedia:Interstate_86_(east) I-86]. Along the way, it will take you past the ["Greater Rochester International Airport"], ["Geneseo"], ["Letchworth State Park"] and ["Dansville"].

- I-390 was originally going to be called I-486, as a spur route from a proposed I-86 in the southern tier. However, NY 17 did not become I-86 until 1999, 28 years after I-390 opened.	+ The small northern portion between the Lake Ontario State Parkway and I-490 is NYS Route 390. South of ["Interstate 490"], the expressway becomes I-390; note the change in the shape and color of the route signs, and some non-visible changes in arcane state and federal roadway funding rules. + + I-390 was originally going to be called I-486, as a spur route from a proposed I-86 in the Southern Tier.
