I 1000% agree on the frustration and I see so much in my travels.
But, thats the thing, if they were closer using the same acres and entire area, there still wouldnt be trees and there would be more homes which in turn drives population up in the area. Thats one reason why I favor spread out homes.
I see too many areas with tight properties and those areas are mostly congested
Some developer could of said you know what.. i bought 50 acres, im gonna take all the trees down and put 100 homes there nice and tight. Instead this guy decided to put 10. .
And I why not friggin plant trees in the empty spots?. Theres so much room there. Also, may be a zoning thing where the town won't allow past certain amount if properties or roads within. At least they didnt put buildings there.
So if they were to describe the material used to make that sidewalk in the picture would they say "that pavement is made of brick"? Sounds funny.
Pavement isn't a material. Our pavements are made of paving slabs which are usually concrete or stone. The road surface is usually Tarmac or asphalt, occasionally concrete.
Never heard anyone use pavement in that way before.
Well that's what it means in American English. Many Americans are equally unfamiliar with your usage, as in: Sidewalks aren't made of pavement, why you calling them pavement?
But also dry and shady - do people like getting wet when they go down town in the UK?
