So. The American Roadside website is here to help visitors stay in touch with the way that roadside continues to change and mutate...on a daily basis. Much of the original roadside is now lost, a victim of changing times, property values, suburbanization and the corporate takeover of nearly every sector of business...making it harder and harder for "Mom and Pops" to survive.

We have a keen interest in making sure that, at the very least, people hear about the roadside bits that are still out there. More than a few great old roadside diners and other attractions have been saved...simply because the web helped spread the word far and wide...and connect a seller with a willing buyer.
