Re: finally there were privatae (private roads), built and maintained by the owners

NY had private roads; early in the previous century, one of the Vanderbuilts constructed a private road, throught Queens, to Westbury (a town on Long Islands North Shore)the road, the Vanderbuilt highway remained in use till the 1930's, when NY state build the parkways.. nowdays, most of the road is gone, but about 5 miles still remain inside of parkland, and the roadway is now a bike path and jogging trail.
