West Baltimore's ill-fated stretch of roadway that has come to be known as the Highway to Nowhere was the product of bad decision making and disregard for the mostly Black neighborhoods it harmed, says E. Evans Paull, a retired city planner and the author of a book about the project's history and impact.
