Bricks & Mortar
Virginia City, Nevada
 

      


      
A wonderfully
      eccentric paving scheme in the historic town of Virginia City,
      Nevada. The flat stone used as the main paving surface and as
      wheel paths in a parking area (above) are native rock from the
      area. The brick trim (above, below) is recycled brick from long-gone
      structures in Virginia City.


      
This carefree
      design is a reminder that public paving surfaces are often too
      sterile to be inviting or interesting, and that options for better
      walking surfaces are only limited by the imagination.
