[edit] Route description

Route 22 through Washington County.
Route 22 through Washington County.

Stretching for 341.33 miles (549.54 km) from its southern terminus at U.S. Route 1 in The Bronx to its northern terminus at the Canadian border in Mooers, New York, NY 22 was designed as a route from New York City to Canada. At the border, the road continues into Canada as Quebec Route 219. Being mostly a surface street with many stoplights, NY 22 has been made obsolete for long distance travel by the Taconic State Parkway and I-87 (New York State Thruway and Northway). NY 22, however, is still important locally and regionally.

Route 22 serves nine counties in New York: Bronx, Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess, Columbia, Rensselaer, Washington, Essex, and Clinton counties.

[edit] History

  • In the early 1920s, NY 22 ran north from New York City up to Hillsdale. By 1929, the designation continued north to Austerlitz, then turned west (along current NY 203) to Valatie
  • The NY 22 designation was extended all the way to Canadian border in the 1930 renumbering. It took over old Route 24 (Stephentown to Middle Granville) and the northern half of old Route 30 (Whitehall to Mooers).
  • Until 1972, NY 22 went further south. It ran along 233rd Street, Jerome Avenue, Grand Concourse and 149th Street in the Bronx, and 145th Street, Lenox Avenue, 110th Street, and Park Avenue into Lower Manhattan. It was also concurrent with a former extension of NY 100 south of Jerome Avenue until 1956.
