It's always amusing when non Americans have to chime in with examples of all of their older things. As if it invalidates anything that's newer. This is an article about the oldest buildings in the states. Which means it's old for the Americans. We get it, you have older stuff, and your infrastructure is generally poorly laid out because of it. Congratulations!

PS. 200km is apparently a "long way" for most Europeans. I find that amusing.
