I-87: a nostalgic NY ride along the Thruway and Deegan Expressway

video upload by CatSynth TV

"Enjoy a fun and nostalgic ride along Interstate 87 in New York in this beautiful 4K video! We start in southern Westchester County, where I-87 is part of the New York State Thruway. At the border of New York City, the Thruway ends, and I-87 continues into the Bronx as the Major Deegan Expressway. It has a large and perpetually traffic-clogged intersection with I-95, which connects to the George Washington Bridge to New Jersey as well as to New England. After that, I-87 and "The Deegan" continue through the south Bronx and end at I-278 and the Triboro (RFK) Bridge.

This one is particularly special, as CatSyth host Amanda Chaudhary grew up here and traveled this freeway often, including to regular visit her grandparents in the Bronx.
