AB Metropolitan

The contemporary face of the Allan Block family — a smooth, subtly marbled surface with mid-century-modern restraint, for homes where split-stone texture would feel busy. Underneath, it's identical to the AB system that earns the brand its reputation: hollow-core blocks that dry-stack without mortar, lock with a raised lip and notch, and drain freely behind the wall — exactly what a retaining wall needs in the Lower Mainland's saturated winter ground. Blocks, corners, and capstones come as one matched kit for walls, steps, and columns, in clean Granville Grey. Choose it over the AB Collection purely on look: modern instead of cut stone.
