1923 ALA Green Book route from Hudson, NY to MA

edit

I have legitimate proof of NE-17 and its route from the ALA 1923 Green Book, Hudson, NY to Pittsfield, MA via Great Barrington. It clearly states the route as follows:

NE-17:

  • HUDSON. At south end of City Park, turn left.
  • Turn right onto Columbia Ave.
  • Bear left onto Green St., small park on right.
  • Straight ahead; railroad crossing.
  • Under railroad viaduct.
  • Claverack. Straight ahead.
  • Hollowville. Bear left.
  • Craryville. Straight ahead.
  • Hillsdale. Straight ahead.
  • Macadam road ends at top of mountain.
  • Slow. This is a "spill" bend.
  • Bear left.
  • Meet and follow trolley.
  • South Egremont, Mass. Straight ahead, leaving trolley at left.

It states the exact route by using landmarks which definitively show it did go where I referenced it did. Monsieurdl mon talk-mon contribs 12:32, 24 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
