This project involved a fair amount of detailed planning as I was building into a finished yard with a predetermined walkway height. Working with this type of material can be quite unforgiving as it is not elastic or easily modified (and still keeping a natural look) – especially the larger monolithic pieces. Twenty-four inch squares were used on the walkway surface and 600 lbs steps were placed onto a custom support – a series of concrete cradles to hold the stones in place. The wall has a concrete block support with weep holes and gravel fill behind as well as a footer. 90% dry stacked and fitted. The two columns are lighted via glass block portals on two sides.
