Route 66 through Amarillo was laid in 1925, connecting Chicago and Los Angeles. At the time, Amarillo was the midpoint of Route 66 and was the only other city the highway went through. In the early '50s, Eighth Avenue, also known as Amarillo Boulevard, was expanded into the first loop around the city, and Sixth Avenue became known as Route 66 Business. The standard highway signage that is in use today also began around this same time. Prior to that, every city and state had their own style.
