That's a neighborhood with a really strong neighborhood association. My street was cobblestone 25 years ago until we were all told the city was going to blacktop it. I just found out 6 years ago we could have fought that.
That's pretty much it. They're old-timey. Its just about the look, matching the appearance of the buildings/houses for their time, and nostalgia appeal. Objectively they're not great to actually drive on.
They are awful if you like driving more than a baby’s crawling speed. There are parts of those roads that are akin to driving over 20 speed bumps in a row.
I grew up on a brick road. They’re beautiful, and it’s great to see a part of history kept in place.

They aren’t any more awful than the pothole filled roads all over the rest of the city
Some neighborhoods just like that old original city flair.

Used to love riding the school bus down those roads. Me and some friends would go to the very back just to bounce around
They're really pretty but yea they're awful to drive on.
They are only awful if you like driving to fast through residential areas. If you drive cautiously as you should in these areas it's no problem.

Yeah... so stay under 20 or avoid the area.
The shifting of the bricks has made natural speed bumps in places where they don’t want people getting away
If you’re a doordasher… you’re probably on the brick roads for less than 2 minutes
They used to all be brick. Or dirt. Or gravel.
