Create Roads as Scenic Byways
At Asheton, we recognize that well-planned, aesthetically appealing
major roadways can add beauty to your surroundings. Whether the setting
is rural or urban, all roads can provide pleasurable panoramas. Examples
are found in many places, including Colonial Parkway, the George
Washington Parkway (along the Potomac River in Washington, D.C.),
and the Blue Ridge Parkway, with pristine nature providing natural
beauty along these routes. Some of the most scenic urban routes include
Monument Avenue in Richmond, while other more modest examples, such
as Queens Road in Charlotte—featuring a winding boulevard of
grand allees of elms and stately homes—is no less stunning
and a “must see” on every visitor’s list to the
Queen City.
