I need this style of brick identified, please! I'm currently ripping up an asphalt driveway that was wrecked by pine tree roots.

Thanks in advance for any input!! :rockon:

Ew. No. Looks like the moisture from the ground will get underneath your cars, which would be like parking on the grass...

If you do it right you dig down a few feet and create a porous area underneath and it allows water to drain instantly.

It's pretty popular in a few areas and doesn't cause any issues.

Was there any specific reason for that style?
If it's just water management, I've seen these used before:
