This was a luxury condo complex in downtown Charleston. I wanted to share some of the brick detail pictures. Very rarly have I seen brick done correctly so I was taken back. It hard to believe how badly installed most brick is.

I toured the Budweiser plant in St Louis last December and was impressed with the detail on many of their brick buildings. I don't recall EVER seeing flashings and weeps done right before (or since) then!

Kind of a fine point, but the picture doesn't show any end dams. Maybe they're in there, but it's called through wall flashing for a reason; you're supposed to see the end dams.

There were only visible end dams at the bottom of the doors but the pictures do not show. Did not see them anywhere else.

Here is the typical brick home in Charleston.

Wow, then you really are in the rarified percentages. Almost no building I see has pans or end dams.
