Long Island
- At the eastern terminus of I-495 (the Long Island Expressway) in Riverhead, there are stub ramps for a continuation of the expressway northward across the Long Island Sound, and even space for an Old Country Road to I-495 north cloverleaf ramp.
- NY 135 has stubs at both the northern and southern ends. At the northern terminus of NY 135, there is an incomplete cloverleaf interchange with NY 25. NY 135 was to continue north to I-95 in Port Chester via a bridge over Long Island Sound. At the southern end, stubs are visible that would have connected to the Wantagh State Parkway. Lots emptied in anticipation of the road are also visible but the right of way has been since sold back to Nassau County to develop as a multi-use trail.

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or island:
“Over and over again, her own direct experience teaches a woman that when she does enough for herself, she feels better and better about her child. When she does too much for too long for her child, she feels harassed and drained. But over and over again, she lapses into doing too much.”
—Roger Gould (20th century)
“We crossed a deep and wide bay which makes eastward north of Kineo, leaving an island on our left, and keeping to the eastern side of the lake. This way or that led to some Tomhegan or Socatarian stream, up which the Indian had hunted, and whither I longed to go. The last name, however, had a bogus sound, too much like sectarian for me, as if a missionary had tampered with it; but I knew that the Indians were very liberal. I think I should have inclined to the Tomhegan first.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
