Texas: History of US 75 realignments at McKinney

[Brian556]

Does anybody have a date for when US 75 was moved from Tennessee St to McDonald St?

The Highway Designation File for LOOP 203 does not give a definite date. It have a 1948 entry for LOOP 203, and a second entry in 1954 clafifying that it should be signed BUSINESS 75

it opened August 31, 1952. The street widening did, at least. Not sure about the state designation.

I read all my history books I have on McKinney, but my only source of info was a Facebook group. According to some lifelong residents, it was moved when McDonald was widened.
