'''Interstate 587''' (abbreviated '''I-587''') is a short ] ] servicing the city of ]. It connects ] and the ] west of the city with the downtown area.

At 1.2 miles, I-587 is one of the shortest Interstate highways, and it is also known as one of the most peculiar and obscure. Although the length of the highway is built to ], it has no interchanges. It begins at a traffic circle (more properly, a ]) near a junction with ], and ends at a traffic light near downtown Kingston. There is no signage for I-587 at its exit from ] (where it is signed as ]). I-587 does not actually connect with I-87, as the aforementioned ] is the end of the highway, and the road north of it is ]. I-587 also has a business on it, which is a rare occurrence for an interstate highway.

The entire length is cosigned with ], and it is commonly called the ''Colonel Chandler Drive.'' Just to the west of ] and the traffic circle at the end of I-587, ] has a full cloverleaf interchange with ].

Legally, the route of I-587 is defined as Interstate Route Connector 530 in New York Highway Law § 340-a.
