If you have the word “Triassic-Jurassic” on your Tarrant County Tuesday bingo card … you win! Of course, the Triassic-Jurassic Period of history began roughly 250 million years ago (give or take a few years) and ended with the dinosaurs taking a dirt nap.
How this relates to Tarrant County Tuesday is that, during the Triassic-Jurassic era, the sandstone commonly referred to as “brownstone” was created. That brownstone material is found on the exterior of many townhomes which thus have become known as Brownstones … or walk-up attached townhomes.
