I like the gray color, it reminds me of the Belgian block paving in Baltimore. Belgian blocks were cut granite(?) blocks used as ballast in empty sailing ships coming to Baltimore for outbound loadings. These would pile up around the harbor (huge piles over the years) and someone got the idea to use them as paving instead of bricks. The Belgian blocks were free and bricks had to be bought. Note that hey never wore out like other common forms of paving.
