Bricks & Mortar
Troutdale, Oregon
 

      


      
In tiny Troutdale,
      a rapidly developing main street was constrained by a very narrow,
      six-foot sidewalk (above). Part of the solution was to set buildings
      back from the existing sidewalk by 2-3 feet, and pave these strips
      of "mini-plaza" with contrasting materials (above,
      below).

      


      
 A closer view of the Troutdale sidewalks shows
      the basic paving materials that make this project cost effective:
      a simple, concrete sidewalk augmented by textured concrete and
      composite "brick" pavers, also made from concrete.
