Johnston mixes acreage steel with subdivision copper

Johnston’s northwest side still has acreages where a shed holds angle iron, old gates, and a mower deck that became scrap the year the rider quit. That steel is worth moving only in bulk, and it often has wood bolted through it. Pull the wood off or tell the yard it is still there.

The subdivision side, closer to the schools and the retail at 86th, looks like every other metro remodel: copper supply, a furnace, and a car that failed emissions and stayed because the household had a second one. Camp Dodge traffic can slow a pickup window — mention morning access if the driveway shares a busy road.
