The Taconic State Parkway in eastern New York State. Some very weird design elements that challenge one's sense of highway driving. Storm water grates. Unmarked short turn off lanes. Cross roads that simply cross without any merging opportunities. No shoulders. You have to drive on to the lawn if you have car trouble. In the north it is quiet, like a post-apocalyptic highway. In the south, locals in expensive cars slalom madly.

Pre-highway highways.
They're neat, if terrifying to drive.
