Notes
Before the Lincoln Memorial was constructed, the nation memorialized Abraham Lincoln with the Lincoln Highway, which now stretches across Lancaster County as Route 462. Inspired by the Good Roads Movement, the Lincoln Highway was formally dedicated Oct. 31, 1913. The Lincoln Highway became affectionately know as "The Main Street Across America."
