Porous Pavers in the Kitchen (Xeripave)

We did a indoor test of the Xeripave porous paving product.  I was very impressed by how it worked under the kitchen sink.  The question is how does the product withstand shoveling, snow blowing, salt residue, and hold up over time.

Their website claims this...

Q. How durable is Xeripave®?
A. Pavers comply with ASTM freeze / thaw requirements, they are unaffected by salt, they are unaffected by UV and are considered inert.

If you have long-term experience with the paver please let me know about it.

City Creek Center - Blue Moon

From the start it is obvious that City Creek Center in downtown Salt Lake City has been designed to be just as beautiful at night as it is during the daytime.  The fountains are unique and artistic.  The signage and lighting is classy and the place is starting to feel alive and yet its not even open.  I look forward to March 2012 when the project officially kicks its doors open to the public.
