Good catch! Also note that in both '63 and '69 pics the interchange is still in its original full-cloverleaf configuration.

Also: 1963, no Botts' dots; 1969, Botts' dots.

Another good one because in less than five years the whole hillside on the right would be condos.

More straight away, and homes built on the hills to the left.

I can't see a N/B bus pad which I though was there then.

And we have to have a car notation. How about the Toyota Corona hot on the heels
of the gutsy orange VW Bug in the fast lane. (You know it's downhill if the bug is there)
