Take a good look, you can see the old end of Central Expressway on the lower right and the old Good-Latimer tunnel to the left. The white line added would eventually become the eastern side of the downtown freeway loop.

This area is under construction to widen US 75 and build new junctions. They're turning some of the old overpasses into underpasses, and I can't figure out why (at Wilmeth and Bloomdale).

This view was of the proposed Central Expressway in 1947. It was mostly built this way, but south of downtown it was converted to an at-grade road.

A photo from Dallas Magazine in the early 50s, showing traffic on Central Expy. Note the solid black lines which were replaced by dashed white ones later in that decade. I can't figure out where this photo was taken, but my best guess is from the Fitzhugh overpass looking northbound in the morning. Ideas?
