==Route description== [[Image:2007 01 23 - 370@355 - NB.JPG|thumb|left|I-370 at MD 355, from top-left to center-right]] I-370 begins a short distance to the west of the [[Interstate 270 (Maryland)|I-270]] interchange in [[Gaithersburg, Maryland|Gaithersburg]], [[Montgomery County, Maryland|Montgomery County]], heading northeast as a six-lane [[freeway]]. Southwest of this interchange, the road continues as '''Sam Eig Highway''' (named after [[Washington, D.C.|Washington]] real estate developer [[Sam Eig]])<ref name=JewWash>[http://www.jhsgw.org/exhibitions/online/jewishwashington/exhibition/real-estate-boom Jewish Washington: "Real Estate Boom"] retrieved September 18. 2014</ref> which interchanges with Washingtonian Boulevard before becoming a surface road. The highway passes woods to the northwest and a shopping center to the southeast as it reaches an interchange with I-270. From this point, I-370 turns east and runs between residential neighborhoods to the north and business parks to the south, with trees separating the road from these areas. The freeway curves northeast again and comes to the [[Maryland Route 355|MD 355]] interchange. Past this, the highway passes more commercial development before reaching a bridge over [[CSX]]'s [[Metropolitan Subdivision]] railroad line. A short distance later, I-370 comes to a [[trumpet interchange]] with MD 200A, a freeway that provides access to Shady Grove Road and the [[Shady Grove station]] of [[Washington Metro]]'s [[Red Line (Washington Metro)|Red Line]]. At this point, I-370 ends and the freeway continues east as [[Maryland Route 200|MD 200]] (Intercounty Connector), a toll road.<ref name=MarylandHLR/><ref name="google">{{google maps |url=https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=fields+road+and+sam+eig+highway&daddr=I-370+E&hl=en&ll=39.1246,-77.188396&spn=0.054134,0.077162&sll=39.12427,-77.18448&sspn=0.054134,0.077162&geocode=FSTdVAId3uRl-ykJDTY5Wi22iTF1PchjonXh9w%3BFbwfVQIdzYBm-w&mra=ls&t=h&z=14|title=overview of Interstate 370|access-date=July 2, 2011}}</ref>
