Conklin Limestone Company is enthusiastic about the line of retaining walls from Allan Block™ Retaining Walls called The Europa Collection®.

Constructed in a combination of four different sized interlocking units, The Europa Collection brings the warmth of old-world charm to Allan Block Retaining WallsThe Dover, The Palermo, The Barcelona and The Bordeaux can be used alone or in any combination as The Abbey to build retaining walls, planters and steps that are both unique and beautiful.

The Europa Collection features a wedge shaped universal unit that allows the construction of gentle curves, straight walls, steps and more.  Also available are matching 90° corner units in both heights. Two lengths of weathered capping units provide a consistent aged elegance in capping off these walls.

The Europa Collection provides all the features and benefits that have been traditionally associated with the Allan Block Retaining Walls.  The patented raised front lip ensures proper setback and a positive interlocking connection while the hollow core construction provides superior drainage and ease of handling. As always, each block comes pre-split and ready to install.
