Wow. I only live about 50 miles across the lake from you.
I am glad you said that as when ever I try to bend my designs in a different direction it takes the fun out of it..
Keep in mind I set the UVW mapping to turn 45 degrees so if you apply a different texture it should fit in a 3 foot square on a 45 degree angle. Here is the brick texture I used for the alley to give you an idea what you would have to work with.
You could also color the brick texture in a paint program and make it darker.
Thanks a lot for the feed back.
