'''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 {{convert|1.2|mi|km}}, 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 ] (reconstructed on the site of an older ]) 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 roundabout is the end of the highway, and the road north of it is ].

The entire length is cosigned with ], and it is commonly called the ''Colonel Chandler Drive.'' Just to the west of ] and the roundabout 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.
