The welcome center provides a safe, off-road location for truckers and motorists to stop and rest on both southbound and northbound lanes of the Adirondack Northway, I-87. Using a context-sensitive solution, the project harmonizes with its surroundings while meeting many needs such as truck inspection areas, U.S. Border Patrol facilities, rest rooms, vending areas, and tourist information areas.
