Interstate 88 isn't the most scenic road, but it will get you from the Quad cities to downtown Chicago faster than I-80 - for a price. Is it the 'real' I-88? Find out here! Control City Freak is updated weekly and covers every two digit Interstate Highway in America. I'll be showing control city signs on each 1 and 2 digit (2di) Interstate Highway in the continental United States and will strive to make as complete a record as possible. I'll also be getting into the roadgeek weeds here and there, showing downtown skylines and state border crossings, and making corny jokes. I welcome all to join my geeky tour of every primary Interstate in the country!
