Concrete Block Walls. Concrete block construction used over twenty-five percent of a building facade <br /> visible from Evergreen Way must be architecturally treated in one or more of the following ways: <br /> (1) Use of textured blocks with surfaces such as split face or grooved. <br /> (2) Use of other masonry types, such as brick, glass block, or tile in conjunction with concrete blocks. <br /> (3) Use of decorative coursing to break up blank wall areas. <br /> (4) Use of matching colored mortar where color is an element of architectural treatment for any of the <br /> options above. <br /> (5) Other treatment approved by the city. <br /> c.
