Terre Haute Before the interstate system came into being, Route 41 called the Dixie Highway and Route 40 called the National Road crossed at Third Street and Wabash Avenue in Terre Haute, IN. The Dixie Highway ran on various routes starting in Northern Michigan and ending in Florida and was started in 1914. The National Highway ran from Atlantic City NJ to San Francisco, CA. As a child I lived at 310 Ohio Street, a block and a half from that corner. Each October Brazil has a "Popcorn Festival" to honor Orville Redenbacher who was born there. Elkhart is the "Band Instrument Capital of the World" as it has been a center for the manufacture of various instruments.
