This shot is taken from the six-story high roof top of a specialty store complex in South Miami. It shows the East-West 878 Snapper Creek Expressway merging into the historical U.S. Route 1 (also called US Highway 1, or US-1.) US-1 is a United States highway which parallels the east coast of the United States. It runs 2,390 miles (3,846 km) from Key West, Florida in the south, traversing Miami, to Fort Kent, Maine at the Canadian border in the north. The time is mid afternoon so the traffic on US-1 looks great. It's not so before 10 am or after 4 pm every week day. The aerial metro running on rails on pilons seen at the center of the photo delivers passengers to various stations on its track.
