Why aren't more streets paved in concrete? I don't think concrete has the pothole problems that asphalt does.
I recall (and many of the photos in the 124 pages of this thread will verify) that in the 1920, 30s, 40s.........a LOT of streets were paved with concrete. Many still are, for that matter. Shit lasts forever. 
Anyone? Bueller?

I grew up in a small town in the south. All the streets were concrete and put in from 1929 to 1945. Those streets look the same and are in great shape. They do last forever!!
