My New Obsession: Brick!

Hello lovelies!  And we're back from our whirlwind adventure all over the East Coast!  In a week, we visited eight states and four different baseball stadiums!  Needless to say, I'm still recovering!  This week, I'm going to be sharing some of our trip highlights with you (minus the baseball, check out my sports blog, LA Sports Doll, for those pics!).  I'm going to start with my new architecture obsession: brick!  There is brick all over the East Coast and really very little here in LA (apparently bricks and earthquakes don't mix) and I am so jealous that we don't have any!  These were a few of my fave brick buildings...


In Philly...





In New York...





In Boston...












So what do you think?  To brick or not to brick?  Obviously in Cali, I'm not going to be moving into a brick brownstone anytime soon, but a girl can dream, right?

  2. Brick is gorgeous! A big thing where I live (the SW) is to have brick facade fronts to houses and stuccoed sides and back. It at least gets you the look! Great pics... make me want to move to the NE... now!

    Cheers,
