Addicks, Houston the original Addicks-Howell Road was paved over during the re-routing of present-day Highway 6, the northern most stretch still exists just south of its intersection with Interstate 10. Other roads that follow this convention include Addicks-Fairbanks Road (present day Eldridge Parkway north of Interstate 10) and Addicks-Clodine Road (most of which was abandoned after building of the Barker Reservoir).
