Airport. This resulted in the renumbering of all of I-78 north of Hillside Avenue to I-295 on January 1, 1970. There have been proposals during the 21st century to extend the Clearview Expressway south to feed into the JFK Expressway via a tunnel. The JFK Expressway had been built as part of a costly overhaul of John F. Kennedy International Airport that began in the late 1980s. The JFK Expressway south of the Nassau Expressway and 150th Street was completed around 1986 and it was fully completed by 1991. In February 2003, the Clearview Expressway was renamed "The 77th Infantry Division Expressway". The name honors the US Army's 77th Infantry Division of World War I and World War II fame. Raised from draftees from New York City and Long Island, the 77th was also known as the Statue of Liberty Division, due to its shoulder-sleeve insignia.
