New Jersey Route 67
Route 67 is a short state highway entirely within the community of Fort Lee in Bergen County, New Jersey. It is part of the original alignment of U.S. Route 9W. The road runs 1.86 miles (2.99 km) from an intersection with Central Boulevard in Fort Lee (also designated as Route 5) down Palisade Avenue in downtown Fort Lee. There it becomes known as Lemoine Avenue, terminating at an interchange with U.S. Route 9W, the Palisades Interstate Parkway and New Jersey Route 445S in Fort Lee. The route was designated originally as a portion of State Highway Route 18N in 1923, and was split up in 1929 as part of current-days New Jersey Route 63, U.S. Route 9W and Route 67 for Routes S-1, 1 and Route S1A. Route S-1-A remained intact on Palisades and Lemoine Avenue until the 1953 state highway renumbering when it was switched over to Route 67. The route has remained virtually intact since.

Famous quotes containing the words jersey and/or route:
“Ladies and gentlemen, I have a grave announcement to make. Incredible as it may seem, strange beings who landed in New Jersey tonight are the vanguard of an invading army from Mars.”
—Orson Welles (1915–1984)
“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
