Slick Bricks

Workers with Decorative Paving of Ohio, from left, Zach Goodspeed, Tyler Bishop and Kelly Hile, remove the brick from Depot Street early Tuesday morning as part of the Depot Street renovation, top photo. The men are part of a 12-member crew removing and cleaning every brick from the historic street through a grant from the Federal Highway Administration. Bryan Miles removes a layer of sand and mud from one of the bricks, right photo, while another worker scrapes a brick, inset photo. New sewer, water and sanitary lines also will be installed. Bluegrass Contracting of Lexington is the project general contractor.
