History:

Sidewalks have been a defining feature of city planning since the late 18th and early 19th centuries, when rapidly growing urban centers sought to separate pedestrian and carriage traffic for safety and cleanliness. Early sidewalks were often simple compacted dirt or stone slabs, but as municipalities modernized, poured concrete became the dominant material thanks to its durability, low cost, and ease of maintenance. Brick sidewalks remained popular in older districts and historic towns, prized for their charm and architectural character.
