Talk:U.S. Route 70
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Termini
To clarify, 70 originates/terminates in Atlantic, NC, not Atlantic Beach. Atlantic is a tiny fishing hamlet. Atlantic Beach is a condo-covered vacation destination. Due to the relative notariety of Atlantic Beach, compared to Atlantic, this is a common error. Atlantic and Atlantic Beach are about 40 miles or 1 hour of drive-time apart, and 70 never enters Atlantic Beach. Edogy 03:15, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
