Excerpt from Roadsides: The Front Yard of the Nation The development of roadsides, however completely carried out, is not absolutely of a community, country, state or nation. It does not rank in importance with road construction, public parks, sanitary sewer systems, water supply and similar enterprises, but it does contribute its full proportional share toward the general welfare of everyone. It is a logical and desirable forward step in public improvement and one among many that should not be overlooked if the greatest benefits are to be realized by the general public. It occupies a place of relative importance and necessity in the complete scheme of public works, yet it applies only to roads and it has only recently been considered as embracing a number of betterments which logically fall under a single classification. This is known as roadside development, which is the collective title for several closely related operations designed to improve the appearance and usefulness of roadsides.
