| Back in the '70s in KC, I had excavated an old sidewalk made of wood bricks at an old house. They were about 4"x9" x3" thick...similar dimensions that old clay street brick pavers have. An old-timer told me that they used to make pavers out of cypress when it was an abundant and cheap wood. They were a super-dark brown color.
Time travel 30 years and I am remembering those wood bricks fondly. I am even wishing I could build a patio with them.
Someone tell me, Was the old-timer correct? Were those wood bricks really probably made of cypress? Was this a common practice? I sorta thought they could have been any ol' wood, that was impregnated with creosote (like a RxR tie). Does anyone know anything about these type pavers?
The last question is: Does anyone know where to buy them today? Either new or re-claimed? |
