Farrow Parkway
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Farrow Parkway is a four-lane, 3.5 mile parkway that connects US 17 and US 17 Business in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The roadway replaced a former two-lane roadway through the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base. The area is being redeveloped with a commercial center, The Market Common, that will open within the next few years. The road project had cost $6.9 million, which came from Myrtle Beach funds and Horry County RIDE funds. Farrow Parkway is named after Lt. William Farrow who was a member of the Doolittle’s Raiders in World War II.
