As of 2019, Bed Bath & Beyond operated approximately 1,530 stores in all 50 U.S. states, as well as in the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and Canada. In addition to more than 1,020 Bed Bath & Beyond stores, the company also operated approximately 280 Cost Plus World Markets, 100 Buy Buy Baby stores, roughly 80 Christmas Tree Shops, and more than 50 Harmon stores. Bed Bath & Beyond announced in January 2021 that it would stop selling MyPillow , citing poor sales. The announcement came in

8625-427: The end of March 2020. The Related Companies refinanced the mall for $ 380 million in 2024. Bronx Terminal Market is close to the New York City Subway 's 149th Street–Grand Concourse station, served by the 2 ​, 4 ​, and 5 trains, and to the 161st Street–Yankee Stadium station, served by the 4 ​, B , and ​ D trains. The 145th Street station, served by

8750-406: The exit 3 overpass, but the murals had still not been installed after the completion of all work on exit 3 in late 2020. The murals were finally installed in early 2021. The mileposts below follow actual signage, even though the route is continuous. For the Bronx section of I-87, mile 0.00 is just north of the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge. For the Thruway section of I-87, mile 0.00

8875-439: The exits become farther apart. Here, the Northway narrows from six to four lanes, preparing for the more rural areas and rugged terrain that follow. North of Lake George, the Northway runs alongside US 9 to Warrensburg , a small town on the Schroon River served by exit 23. The view straight ahead on the northbound side from this interchange acts as an unofficial gateway to the Adirondacks, with tall mountains acting as

9000-570: The expressway from the bridge to the Grand Concourse was completed in April 1939. The highway was adorned with Whitestone-style light posts placed every 75 feet (23 m) of the six-lane highway, each of which were 12 feet (3.7 m) in width. The expressway was designated as New York State Route 1B ( NY 1B ) c.  1941 ; however, the designation was removed by 1947. In 1945, public works planner Robert Moses proposed extending

9125-468: The first time. In 2002, Bed Bath & Beyond acquired Harmon Discount Health & Beauty, later renamed Harmon Face Values . Five years later in 2007, the company acquired Buy Buy Baby , a chain of baby supply stores founded by Feinstein's sons, and began international expansion, opening their first Canadian store in Richmond Hill, Ontario . By 2011, Bed Bath & Beyond had 1,142 stores. In 2012,

9250-407: The former Bronx House of Detention for Men , south of Yankee Stadium . The US$ 500 million shopping center, which was completed in 2009, saw the construction of new buildings and two smaller buildings, one new and the other a renovation of an existing building that was part of the original market. The two main buildings are linked by a six-level garage for 2,600 cars. The center's design has earned

9375-610: The freeway gains a pair of service roads and heads north to the New York City line, where it becomes the New York State Thruway as it passes into Westchester County . The last northbound exit on the Deegan connects to McLean Avenue, located north of the city line in Yonkers . The exit 14 ramp leads to the service road in the Bronx but does not meet McLean Avenue until it crosses the county line. Southbound access to McLean Avenue

9500-532: The governor's middle initial in the name. In the wake of former New York Yankees player Joe DiMaggio 's death on March 8, 1999, Governor George Pataki proposed renaming the Deegan Expressway to the "Joe DiMaggio Highway." However, New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani favored renaming the West Side Highway for DiMaggio instead. Pataki agreed to Giuliani's proposal one week later. A long stretch of

9625-544: The highway makes a turn to the north, mirroring a change in the nearby river's course. It passes by Yankee Stadium on its way to Highbridge , where the Deegan connects to the Cross Bronx Expressway ( I-95 and US Route 1 [US 1]) at the eastern approach to the Alexander Hamilton Bridge . The Deegan remains in close proximity to the Harlem River until the waterway turns westward at Kingsbridge to form

9750-612: The highway runs closer to the river as it parallels US 9W through the towns of Saugerties , Catskill , Coxsackie , and Ravena . Just north of Ravena, the Thruway meets the west end of the Berkshire Connector, a spur linking the Thruway mainline to the Massachusetts Turnpike 25 miles (40 km) to the east. The highway continues into the vicinity of Albany , where it connects to Troy via I-787 at exit 23 and intersects I-90 at exit 24. The latter of

9875-510: The highway to the proposed Thruway. Construction on the extension began in 1950, and the new route was opened in 1956. The Major Deegan Expressway is named for William Francis Deegan , who died in 1932. He was an architect, a major in the Army Corps of Engineers , and a Democratic political leader in New York City. I-87 was assigned on August 14, 1957, as part of the establishment of the Interstate Highway System. The highway initially utilized

10000-574: The highway's construction, Saratoga County has become the fastest growing area of the Capital District, and indeed all of upstate New York. For its first few miles in Saratoga County, I-87 runs across lightly developed parts of the towns of Halfmoon and Clifton Park . Near exit 9, however, the freeway passes through the commercial center of Clifton Park as it connects to NY 146 . Clifton Park Center , one of several shopping plazas at

10125-410: The junction, is situated southwest of the exit. Past exit 9, the commercial development subsides as I-87 traverses another area dominated by housing tracts. Just north of the exit, the freeway passes a rest area for northbound traffic. The freeway continues on, passing to the west of the centers of Round Lake at exit 11 and Malta at exit 12. The roadway then meets US 9 at Exit 13,

10250-554: The last interchange on I-87 before the Canada–United States border. Past the exit, the highway doubles in width, becoming eight lanes wide as it begins to run past the customs facilities on the American side of the border. The Northway and I-87 end shortly thereafter at the Canada–United States border, where the highway continues past the Champlain–St. Bernard de Lacolle Border Crossing into Quebec as A-15 toward Montreal. The origins of

10375-438: The last stores closing permanently on July 30, 2023. Industry analysts attribute Bed Bath & Beyond's failure to a number of factors, including a late entry to e-commerce , reduction in merchandise selection and quality, supply chain issues, competition from Walmart , Target , and HomeGoods , and debt accrued from stock buybacks . The latter is widely considered the largest reason for Bed Bath & Beyond's collapse, as

10500-536: The latter routed along Watervliet Shaker Road. After a brief stretch of housing tracts, I-87 connects to NY 2 and NY 7 at exit 6, a single-point urban interchange , in a commercialized part of Latham . NY 7 joins I-87 here, following the freeway for roughly 0.8 miles (1.3 km) to exit 7, the west end of a limited-access highway previously known locally as Alternate Route 7. While NY 7 heads east toward Troy , I-87 continues north past gradually less commercialized areas as it approaches

10625-436: The market's flagship structure went up, a small, cubist-style polygon at 149th Street with "Bronx Terminal Market" in large relief in the concrete. This building was designed to serve as a bank and, upstairs, a hotel for farmers. A car float brought in rail cars by barge to the market. On December 21, 1935, La Guardia appeared at the market to proclaim a citywide ban on the sale, display, and possession of artichokes . The ban

10750-527: The new Tappan Zee Bridge became one of the longest cable-stayed spans in the nation. In June 2017, the Tappan Zee Bridge was renamed the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge. The renaming resulted in controversy from the public who wanted to keep the name to honor Tappan Indians and Dutch who previously resided in the area. In August 2019, some signs for the bridge were replaced because they did not include

10875-508: The new spans being built to the north of the existing bridge. The new bridge connects to the existing highway approaches of I-87 and I-287 on both river banks. The northbound/westbound span opened on August 25, 2017. Southbound/eastbound traffic remained on the old bridge until October 6, 2017. At that point, southbound/eastbound traffic shifted to the westbound span of the new bridge and the old bridge closed. The bridge's eastbound span opened to traffic on September 11, 2018. Upon completion,

11000-521: The northern county line. The businesses ultimately give way to stretches of homes and subdivisions as the highway crosses into Saratoga County by way of the Thaddeus Kosciusko Bridge , called by locals "the twin bridges ", spanning the Mohawk River . The northern portion of the Northway through Colonie and Saratoga County is now a heavily traveled commuter route as a six-lane freeway. Since

11125-482: The northern edge of Manhattan . North of Kingsbridge, the expressway follows a generally northeasterly alignment, passing through the center of Van Cortlandt Park as it connects to Mosholu Parkway and Jerome Avenue . Mosholu Parkway also links the Deegan to the Henry Hudson and Saw Mill River parkways, which run parallel to the Major Deegan Expressway through the western Bronx and Manhattan. Past Jerome Avenue,

11250-403: The northern part of Lake George. At the time, I-87 curved around the western outskirts of the village to end at NY 9N north of the village on a highway built c.  1964 . In mid-1966, the state opened a $ 23-million (equivalent to $ 165 million in 2023 ) section of the Northway between Lake George and exit 26 at Pottersville . I-87 was reconfigured slightly near Lake George as

11375-635: The northwest, bypassing the village to cross the Ausable River and enter Clinton County. Just across the county line, I-87 intersects NY 9N again at exit 34 in Keeseville , finally leaving the more rural, mountainous areas of the Adirondack Mountains and entering a more populated region. Exit 34 is the southernmost junction to feature bilingual guide signs in English and French due to

11500-466: The part from Katonah to Goldens Bridge, was completed by 1971. On January 1, 1970, I-87 was rerouted between Elmsford and Newburgh to follow the mainline of the Thruway instead, leaving the Purchase–Brewster freeway to become I-684 . The original Tappan Zee Bridge , carrying the concurrency of New York State Thruway , I-87, and I-287 , was a cantilever bridge built during 1952–55. The bridge

11625-424: The part of Interstate 87 (I-87) north of the New York State Thruway, was built in segments, which became I-87 as they were completed and linked to the pre-existing route. Construction began in the late 1950s on the portion of the Northway between the Thruway and NY 7 near Latham . This segment was open to traffic by 1960. Fuller Road Alternate, the lone portion of the Adirondack Northway not part of I-87,

11750-585: The preexisting New York State Thruway from Albany to Newburgh and in lower Westchester County, and the Major Deegan Expressway in New York City. From Newburgh to the Elmsford area, I-87 was to follow a new highway running parallel to US 9 northward along the eastern bank of the Hudson River to Fishkill . I-87 would then have followed the proposed I-84 across the Hudson to rejoin the Thruway outside of Newburgh. After

11875-886: The previous 12 members. On April 13, 2019, there was a report that the chain would close 40 stores but open 15 new locations. On May 13, 2019, Bed Bath & Beyond announced that CEO Steven Temares would step down "effectively immediately" and would resign his seat on the board of directors. Mary Winston, who had been appointed to the company's board as a result of the activist investment firms' efforts, replaced Temares as interim CEO. On November 4, 2019, Mark Tritton, previously chief merchandising officer at Target , started as Bed Bath & Beyond's CEO. To combat declining profitability, Bed Bath & Beyond, which had for decades used coupon mailers and other promotional discounting tactics to attract consumers, announced in April 2019 that it would reduce its use of promotional coupons and tighten restrictions on their use. The chain also announced

12000-584: The region and serves approximately 80 million people in the Mid-Atlantic states , New England , and Quebec . Motorists can connect to multiple highways to travel farther south along I-95 through the Mid-Atlantic states or farther east into New England. The highest traffic counts on the highway are between the Bruckner Expressway and the George Washington Bridge in New York City. The remainder of

12125-491: The regionally popular Saratoga Race Course and thus receives heavy traffic during the racing season. A southbound-only entrance ramp exists off Nelson Avenue Extension about one mile (one point six kilometres) south of exit 14, designed to handle traffic exiting the track at Saratoga Race Course and the Saratoga Casino Hotel . The highway continues around the eastern edge of Saratoga Springs to exit 15, where

12250-448: The relatively undeveloped areas east of I-87 are briefly replaced by Wilton 's commercial district along NY 50 . As I-87 continues northeast through Wilton, it heads across significantly less developed areas, with open fields becoming the most common feature along the road. It continues into Moreau , connecting to US 9 and serving Moreau Lake State Park by way of exit 17, a once cloverleaf interchange being converted to

12375-471: The resorts of Saratoga Springs and Lake George ; and on to Plattsburgh and Montreal . I-87 heads northeast from I-90 as a six-lane freeway with three lanes in each direction. It immediately traverses the Albany Pine Bush Preserve and passes west of Rensselaer Lake before crossing CSX Transportation 's Hudson Subdivision and running parallel to Wolf Road, a business thoroughfare through

12500-569: The rest of the mall opened on September 12. The original tenants at the mall included several restaurants, a Chase bank, many stores taking up the third floor, and more anchor stores including Bed Bath & Beyond (its first and only store in the Bronx), Best Buy , BJ's , Marshalls , Raymour & Flanigan , Toys "R" Us (the first "R" Superstore in New York), Staples , and Target . In September 2012, Staples announced that it would close 30 stores in

12625-427: The river and its rural valley to the northeast for 15 miles (24 km) to the town of North Hudson . In North Hudson, the valley becomes less pronounced as the Schroon River reaches its source near exit 30. Here, US 9 and I-87 cross paths again, with the former heading northwest toward Keene and the latter continuing northeast in a narrow valley formed by Ash Craft Brook. After five miles (8.0 km),

12750-419: The road's proximity to Quebec . Beyond NY 9N, the Northway curves to the north, running along the west side of Keeseville before entering another rural but fairly level stretch that follows I-87 out of Adirondack Park. Now outside the park, the highway encounters more frequent pockets of development as it follows NY 22 into the town of Plattsburgh . Just inside the town line, the Northway crosses over

12875-457: The roadway. These boxes used a two-way ultra high frequency radio network to connect directly to New York State Police dispatchers. In February 2023, the New York State police announced that the call box system was being decommissioned and would be removed complete by Fall 2023. The first of 13 new cellular phone towers along I-87 was installed in October 2008. A second cellular phone tower

13000-554: The route in New York City and its suburbs (mainly Suffern and south) also has particularly high traffic counts, especially over the Tappan Zee Bridge as it goes over the Hudson River . Upstate, the most used sections are in Albany and Saratoga , as those are the most populated areas in the north. The least used sections of I-87 are the portions of the Thruway between Newburgh and the Berkshire Connector , followed by

13125-429: The same path; the Northway itself actually begins not at I-87/I-90 but about one mile (1.6 km) south from its interchange, the Northway reaches its southern terminus at Western Ave ( US 20 ), and then joins with I-87 for the rest of its route. I-87 turns to head north toward the Canada–United States border at Champlain while I-90 continues east toward downtown Albany and Rensselaer County . South of this point,

13250-681: The stream reaches its source at Lincoln Pond, leaving the Northway to climb in elevation and wind its way northeastward across the surrounding mountains. It reaches slightly more level ground in Westport , where I-87 connects to NY 9N at exit 31. From here, the highway takes a generally northerly track across the Boquet River to the town of Lewis , rejoining US 9 as both roads head toward Clinton County . They split again after seven miles (11 km) as US 9 veers more easterly than I-87 to serve Keeseville . The Northway, meanwhile, heads to

13375-406: The town of Colonie . Wolf Road itself begins adjacent to exit 2, a cloverleaf interchange with NY 5 (Central Avenue). Heading northbound, the ramp for exit 2E feeds directly into the intersection of NY 5 and Wolf Road, located just west of Colonie Center , one of the Capital District 's largest enclosed shopping malls. I-87 continues to run alongside Wolf Road to exit 4,

13500-423: The towns of Beekmantown and Chazy . Outside of the hamlet of Chazy, the Northway begins to run across a series of wetlands along the west side of US 9. The marshy terrain follows I-87 into the town of Champlain, where I-87 encounters the northernmost community along its course, the village of Champlain . I-87 veers slightly westward to avoid the village, and in doing so it meets US 11 at exit 42,

13625-403: The two junctions is the busiest of the Thruway's exits, serving an estimated 27 million vehicles a year. I-87 then widens to six lanes and runs across the capital city's residential suburbs for six miles (9.7 km) to exit 24, a complex interchange with I-90. At this point, I-87 leaves the Thruway to access the nearby south end of the toll-free Adirondack Northway, also known simply as

13750-683: The two-mile (3.2 km) I-587 and the 10-mile (16 km) I-787 , link I-87 to the cities of Kingston and Albany , respectively. Two other spurs of I-87 were planned but never constructed, with no plans to sign them in the near future. In the Hudson Valley, I-487 would have run along the Hudson River from I-87 and I-287 in Tarrytown to I-84 east of Beacon . The other spur, I-687 , would have connected I-90 in Albany to I-87 near Albany International Airport in Colonie . Both routes were canceled in

13875-425: The village of Lake George , where I-87 meets NY 9N via exits 21 and 22. Route 9N veers to the northeast along the shore of Lake George as "Lake Shore Drive", toward the town of Bolton Landing , a popular village on the shore of Lake George with shops and restaurants. Exit 22 is the last exit before the Northway begins traversing approximately 90 miles (140 km) of mostly rural areas where

14000-476: The wake of the January 6 United States Capitol attack , that CEO Mike Lindell supported conspiracy theories and efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election , and amidst similar announcements by Kohl's and Wayfair . Throughout 2020, Bed Bath & Beyond sold many of its subsidiaries. First, in April, One Kings Lane was sold to CSC Generation. Later that year in October, the company announced plans to sell

14125-482: Was chosen as America's Most Scenic New Highway of 1966 by Parade . It became the second New York highway to win the award, as a stretch of NY 17 in Broome and Delaware counties was selected for the title in 1964. The gap in the Northway between Pottersville and Keeseville was narrowed considerably by July 1967 with the completion of a 25-mile (40 km) segment from Pottersville to exit 30 at Underwood. It

14250-437: Was closed further on July 25, 1967, with the opening of a three-mile (4.8 km) stretch near Keeseville between exits 34 and 33. The last section of the Northway to be built, a 30-mile (48 km) stretch between Underwood and Keeseville (exit 33), was finished on August 31, 1967. The completion of the Northway linked New York City with Montreal by way of a direct, limited-access highway, with I-87 becoming A-15 at

14375-405: Was completed just one month later. Exit 6 on the Adirondack Northway was originally a diamond interchange . Construction to convert the junction into a single-point urban interchange began in mid-2008 and was completed on September 12, 2010. The total cost of the project was $ 41.9 million (equivalent to $ 57.2 million in 2023 ). Until October 2019, there was no exit 3 on

14500-415: Was completed on October 31, 2015. In August 2018, plans were announced to build a new exit 3 on the Northway, providing more direct access from both directions to Albany International Airport. The project was completed by Lancaster Development and Tully Construction at a cost of $ 50 million, with a target completion date of mid-2020. As part of the interchange, a flyover ramp was constructed over

14625-413: Was finished on July 19, 1963, and the entire NY 67–US 9 segment was completed by 1964. An extension linking NY 149 to NY 9N south of Lake George village opened in mid-1963. By July 1963, the Northway was completed from the Canada–United States border south to exit 34 at Keeseville . Additionally, the existing Albany–Lake George section was extended slightly by May 1966 to serve

14750-495: Was instituted to combat the inflation of artichokes set by mobsters, namely Ciro Terranova . The ban was lifted within a year. The market eventually grew to become the nation's largest wholesale market for Hispanic foods . The market went into steady decline and became a financial burden for the City in the late 1960s. When City began demolishing the market, however, Bronx Terminal Market Merchants Association approached developer David Buntzman for help to save it. Buntzman obtained

14875-403: Was modified slightly by 1968: I-87 still began in New York City, then overlapped with I-287 east to Purchase. From there, I-87 headed north along the now-open expressway to Armonk, where it ended at NY 22 . Another portion of the highway, from Goldens Bridge ( NY 138 ) to Brewster, was open as well while the part from Armonk to Katonah was under construction. This segment, as well as

15000-591: Was moving into the former Toys "R" Us at the Bronx Terminal Market. It was originally scheduled to open in Spring 2019, but instead opened in January 2020. It is the largest supermarket in the Bronx. In December 2019, a new universal hip hop museum, the Revolution of Hip Hop , opened at the Bronx Terminal Market. In January 2020, it was announced that Bed Bath & Beyond at the Bronx Terminal Market would be closing at

15125-603: Was opened, it featured one of the few railroad grade crossings on an Interstate Highway, just south of the Thaddeus Kosciusko Bridge over the Mohawk River. This at-grade crossing was removed within a couple of years when the railroad line was cut backward and the crossing was no longer needed. Construction on the portion of highway between the two segments began c.  1962 . The 1.8-mile (2.9 km) part between NY 9P and NY 50 near Saratoga Springs

15250-512: Was originally intended to be part of the Southern Albany Expressway, a proposed highway which would have connected the Northway to Interstate 787 and run parallel to the Thruway between exits 23 and 24. Exit 1 of the Northway is the only exit on the highway that is within Albany, it connects the highway to Interstate 90 (I-90). The highway connects Albany to the suburbs to the north such as Latham, and Clifton Park ;

15375-401: Was originally intended to be part of the Southern Albany Expressway, a proposed highway which would have connected the Northway with I-787 and run parallel to the Thruway between exits 23 and 24. The Northway was built in segments, which became I-87 as they were completed and linked to the preexisting route. Construction began in the late 1950s on the portion of the Northway between

15500-420: Was shifted to the New York State Thruway between Newburgh and the Deegan Expressway; its previous alignment between Brewster and White Plains was redesignated as I-684 . Meanwhile, all of the Adirondack Northway, the portion of I-87 slated to extend from Albany north to the Canada–United States border, had yet to be built. Fuller Road Alternate, the spur leading south from the Adirondack Northway to US 20 ,

15625-439: Was three miles (4.8 km) long and spanned the Hudson at its second-widest point. Before its replacement in 2017, the deteriorating structure carried an average of 138,000 vehicles per day, substantially more traffic than its designed capacity. During its first decade, the bridge carried fewer than 40,000 vehicles per day. Part of the justification for replacing the bridge stems from its construction immediately following
