History
SR 764 made its debut in 1946. Its original routing followed the entirety of its existing alginment, along with the short portion of SR 241 that follows Triplett Boulevard on the north side of Akron-Fulton International Airport between Seiberling Street and Massillon Road.
In 2009, SR 241 was re-routed north of SR 764 off of Massillon Road, and onto Seiberling Street approximately four blocks to the west. Consequently, SR 241 was routed over the former easternmost four blocks of SR 764 to connect to the north–south segment of SR 241. SR 764 was thus shortened as its new eastern terminus was moved to its new junction with SR 241 at the intersection of Triplett Boulevard and Seiberling Street.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“History does nothing; it does not possess immense riches, it does not fight battles. It is men, real, living, who do all this.... It is not “history” which uses men as a means of achieving—as if it were an individual person—its own ends. History is nothing but the activity of men in pursuit of their ends.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“Yet poetry, though the last and finest result, is a natural fruit. As naturally as the oak bears an acorn, and the vine a gourd, man bears a poem, either spoken or done. It is the chief and most memorable success, for history is but a prose narrative of poetic deeds.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship. Art history has attained only a fraction of the conceptual sophistication of literary criticism.... Drunk with self-love, criticism has hugely overestimated the centrality of language to western culture. It has failed to see the electrifying sign language of images.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
