What is with all the red brick

[Ron Bibler]

Ok i need some help from the brothers in Texas and on down south and back east. Why is there so much red brick construction and red brick veneer?

I see alot of the post from the inspectors back east and this is a main item. just need to know.

Please help a Calif. boy understand what is going on back there.

Best

Ron.

In my area, there is an abundance of red clad. Red clay is everywhere. Thing is about that red clay, it's great for making Red Bricks.
