Had to choose between a 4.5 inch and a 6 inch brick for a garden wall rebuild in Burlington. Went with the 6 inch and it's holding up way better against the freeze-thaw cycles.

My old garden wall used the 4.5 inch brick.

Oh wow, this is actually super helpful. I always figured the thinner brick was fine to save a bit of cash. Seeing it laid out like that for Burlington weather makes total sense. The extra cost for the 6 inch is totally worth it if it doesn't crack after one winter. You just changed my whole plan for my own project.
