To go halfway to the extreme of this article, I think banning large-scale billboards in my city would make a big difference.

It feels like having a calmer public space is more in the public interest than reminding them to drink Miller Lite.

Redmond, WA has a ban on billboards. Locals can see this demonstrated by driving 124th St. and crossing Willows Rd into Kirkland. First thing you’ll see are billboards.

Just got back from a trip to Florida. Billboards along every freeway, and 75% of them are personal injury lawyers. If you’re a resident of Redmond, it is an obnoxious contrast.
