Literally had a conversation with a guy who assumed that all roads were just paved over old 'naturally made' wagon trails, and I had to explain to him that for most American parceling, the roads usually came first, then the government parceled the lands, which is why areas without roads are usually unparceled, and that most American cities were created by proximity to either trains, harbors or highways. It genuinely escapes people that you don't build infrastructure around development, you develop around infrastructure.
