The difference iron, is brittle but it does not rust. Either is a pain to paint.
An interesting project. Probably better done before the house is built.

The wall which surrounds all lots built with a drop, are brick, are already completed by the developers. Many Million dollar homes around Evens Prairie have the same drop with retaining walls built by the developer. Our lawn doesn’t have a drop, just the wall behind our home. The short fence is on top of wall
So no worries on the wall. My question was did you keep a lawn in your easement behind your pool, or mulch to keep lawn cutting away from pool.
