North Carolina Highway 90 (NC 90) is a primary state highway in the state of North Carolina. It is one of the few highways in the state with an unpaved portion.
The western terminus is in Edgemont (in Caldwell County) at an intersection with Edgemont Road (SR 1420), Roseboro Road (Pisgah National Forest FR 981) and Edgemont Church Place (SR 1358). The first 8 miles (13 km) of the highway are quite curvy and unpaved. Sixty-six miles after its inception, NC 90 ends at US 21/US 64 in Statesville. Major cities that the highway serves are Lenoir and Taylorsville, North Carolina.
Established in 1921 as an original state highway, it started at NC 50 (Person Street), in Raleigh, going east to Columbia. In 1927, NC 90 was extended west from Raleigh to Lenoir at NC 18. In 1929, NC 90 extended east from Columbia to Fort Landing.
