It's nice that these new owners saw the beauty of the original brickwork and decided to keep it.<br /><br />debsgarden - I am old enough :) to remember most of Tyler's street being brick, before they started asphalting over most of them. I'm glad they retained a portion of them. They can be a bit dangerous when wet, butHolleyGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892421871044249940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485248345006754419.post-43855481467529741512011-05-06T07:00:21.409-07:002011-05-06T07:00:21.409-07:00I love garden tours.

Thanks for the feature on Tyler's red brick streets.

The red clay we have for soil was easily made into brick, so I think that's why it's so prevalent here.<br /><br />Jeannie - I hope you do! There's quite a lot to see, especially for us interested in gardening.<br /><br />PlantPostings - I think it's a very livable garden.

Not sure I'd want to mimic the amount of work it would take though!<br /><br />Darla - Brick are so classic, they are a great addition to any garden.<br /><br />Donna - I once put in a little patio and used brick - didn't realize at that time that I could have used pavers and it would have been a lot easier!

I also like the features and agree with your comment regarding knowing when a garden is successful - when others want to mimic it in their own spaces.
