I had some questions concerning the old James Couzen Highway - the at-grade divided parkway that was eventually subsumed by the Lodge - that ran from Wyoming northwest to 8 Mile. There is an old thread in the archives on this, but the thread doesn't answer exactly what I'm looking for. I thought you guys might be able to help.

1. What year did the James Couzen begin construction and when was it finished? Are there any street-level photos of it online showing how it looked? The old thread has a small aerial shot showing its terminus looking southeast at Wyoming, but that's about it.

2. I guess the Lodge was built up to it sometime in the 50's or 60's [[not sure when it was connected before the Lodge eventually entranched it), but did the Lodge empty right onto the highway [[or vice versa) at the Wyoming intersection, or was there a oh-so-slightly more elaborate interchange with the at-grade highway? How long did this interchange exist before they entrenched the James Couzen?

Thanks in advance.
