<div id="ygrps-yiv-1872817644">This para.: Also, a little north of Gravelyu Point just south of Ladfy<br/>
Bird Johnson park, there are loops on Hwy 395 forming access ramps<br/>
that are on &quot;added land that weren&#39;t there when the border was named<br/>
to be along the shore - this part was added and the added part didn&#39;t<br/>
cause the border to change - it is still Virginia. <br/>
<br/>
It is still DC (not Virginia) - where the water used to be was DC and<br/>
even after having adding land to accommodate the ramps, the area<br/>
stayed as DC territory.  <br/>

&gt; sanctuary - it&#39;s unclear how far the District shoreline extends into<br/>
&gt; the channel leading to the santuary lake, but part of this road might<br/>
&gt; well be in DC at this point, too.  <br/>

&gt; Lastly, a technical correction, the overpass I mentioned in my last<br/>
&gt; message west of Roosevelt Island is not part of 66, but part of the<br/>
&gt; George Washington Memorial Parkway that parallels 66 at this point. <br/>
&gt; The parkway is an unnumbered federal highway under the jurisdiction of<br/>
&gt; the Park Service.  It starts on the northern section of the beltway<br/>
&gt; the encircles the District of Columbia, and parallels the Potomac<br/>
&gt; River, ending at Washington&#39;s home at Mt. Vernon, about 10 miles south<br/>
&gt; of the District.<br/>
