Hello Paul:

The interchange of I-94 (Edsel Ford Expressway) and the John Lodge Expressway was completed in 1953 and work proceeded eastward toward the PMCC from there. More than 10 years later I-94 terminated at the City of Detroit boundry to the east.

It wasn't until after 1965 that I-94 went out into the eastern suburbs.

I my humble opinion, the problem was not with land planners, architects, engineers or developers - it was with corrupt and mindless, power-hungry politicians.
