Mile Zero of U.S. Route 1
1926
Fort Kent, Maine

The sign at the Canadian border in Fort Kent marks the top of U.S. Route 1, the 2,369-mile main street that runs from here to Key West through every East Coast city that matters. Drivers photograph the beginning here and the end in Florida, rarely both. Fort Kent treats the sign as civic identity: the road south starts in the potato country.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
