I guess if I lived in the north and was concerned about my property value, I might find every opportunity to toss the dirt in the hopes that it may land somewhere.
I don't see what you see. I have driven to the southern area a few times and I still look for the lovely water falls and gardens on the corners of the main roads that we have north of 44. South of 44, I have not found one corner adorned with those beautiful water falls. I also do not see the abundance of flower plantings as there are north of 44. I noticed this the first time more than a year ago and was hoping the area would be "prettied up" more like what we have north of 44. Hubby and I took a drive down there two weeks ago and it still looks very sterile to me. Still no fountains on the corners and the planting of flowers are very minimal.

Just my observations. I don't mean to bash at all.
