US highways with brick-street segments

In Stockton, KS, which I drove through earlier today, US 24 follows Main Street through town. Along its path through Stockton, the four blocks of Main Street/US 24 closest to the central intersection with Cedar Street/US 183 (two blocks to the west and two to the east) are paved with brick, corresponding with the town's downtown business district.

Throughout the country, where might some other towns be in which a US highway goes through it, and its path through the town follows a brick street or streets for at least one block? I'm sure there's a number of them.

US-12 (Michigan Avenue) for about 1/2 mile near the old Tiger Stadium site in Detroit.  The asphalt section in the center lane covers the old trolley car rails, still partially visable, that were part of Detroit's light rail system shut down in the 1950s.

What are these streets paved with, older traditional 'fired' ceramic bricks or much newer PCC concrete 'cinder' bricks?
