 Between the bridge and exit 18 , I @-@ 87 passes two rest areas , one for each direction . The road 's northward course through Queensbury quickly brings it to the outskirts of Glens Falls , and as such the highway heads across another swath of residential neighborhoods . Exits 18 and 19 are the main exits for the city , with the latter connecting to NY 254 near the commercial center of Queensbury . Just east of the exit is Aviation Mall , located on NY 254 just west of the route 's junction with US 9 . A northwestern turn in the freeway takes I @-@ 87 past the Great Escape amusement park and lodge , both of which are accessed from exit 20 and NY 149 . Past exit 20 , I @-@ 87 runs across increasingly remote areas of Queensbury as the road enters Adirondack Park and heads toward Lake George . The freeway closely follows US 9 northwest to the village of Lake George , where I @-@ 87 meets NY 9N via exits 21 and 22 .
