Ohio State Route 25
State Route 25 (SR 25, OH 25) is a largely north–south highway in northwestern Ohio. Its termini are on Interstate 75 near Cygnet (south) and at Interstate 280 in Toledo (north).
Between Perrysburg and Cygnet it is the relic of an old U.S. Route 25 that passes through Bowling Green as largely a divided surface highway. From Perrysburg it crosses the Maumee-Perrysburg Bridge joint with U.S. Route 20 and then follows the Anthony Wayne Trail from Maumee into downtown Toledo. The Maumee portioni is joint with U.S. Route 24. (U.S. Route 24 in greater Toledo takes, as far south as Perrysburg, the path of what used to be U.S. Route 25, more distant from the newer I-75, having had its route switched with that of old U.S. Route 25). North of this former terminus, State Route 25 runs through downtown Toledo on Erie Street (northbound) and Michigan Street (southbound) before becoming the Greenbelt Parkway, which is cut off at Interstate 280, terminating the route.

“All inquiry into antiquity, all curiosity respecting the Pyramids, the excavated cities, Stonehenge, the Ohio Circles, Mexico, Memphis,—is the desire to do away this wild, savage, and preposterous There and Then, and introduce in its place the Here and Now.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The human race is yet in its infancy—no, not infancy; infancy is innocent and sweet—it is in its ugly boyhood, half way between the child and the man—in a state of semi-barbarism.”

“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
