We see Salisbury as a distinct urban enclave, bordered in several directions by farms, open fields, and woodlands. As we approach the city limits, we note the dramatic change in character from the rural countryside to the urban streetscape (landscaped central median, overarching street trees, attractive streetlights) of Salisbury. We appreciate the architecture that is unique to Salisbury, free of the plastic, fast food franchise architecture prevalent in so many other communities.
