sevfiv Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 no, it is more rough to take my horse-drawn covered wagon down wide-laned pavement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjb434 Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 If we didn't have freeways we would have developed more like European cities and New York and Chicago.We wouldn't be as sprawled out, but that's a what if scenario that won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plumber2 Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Houston and the whole entire state.Will it be tough to get to places with no freeways to get around. YES OR NO! What do u think! I'm one of the few who can remember Houston with no freeways and it took forever to get around. We lived on the west side and it took forever to get to the airport (HIA) not (IAH), and that was back in 1959. Can't remember much past then. Okay the Gulf Freeway was there and bits and pieces of other roads were in the works, but it sucked. OST was like Westheimer in front of the Galleria today. Getting to the zoo was just as bad. We didn't have air conditioning in those cars either guys. I love our freeways....every mile of them. Let's finish the ones that are planned and then take a look at what we have. You will be greatful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
