Have you ever wondered, "Why do we drive on parkways and park on driveways?"
Well I have the answer from "Oh Yeah Facts" on Tumblr.
The reason we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway is twofold: Parkways were originally roads that went through scenic parks (aka lots of tress) and driveways used to be much longer...you would have to actually drive up to the house.
Very Interesting, Indeed!
