Study in Contrast: A Business That Appears to Be More Responsible to the Neighborhood

A mere stone's throw from the litter and tall grass on the south side of Jefferson Street facing 5th Ave., North lies Overton Distributors®, a business that seems to understand its responsibility to Germantown to provide a well-kept and attractive yard.

As you can see below, there is not a speck of trash to be found, and their lot is huge. The grass is mowed and edged. No debris or building materials. Standing next to it gave me the urge to spread a blanket and have a picnic, excluding, of course, Strickland's Supreme Salads®.
