Default entry walls

On some models like the Lily, I've seen 3' entry walls of concrete that look quite attractive. Who does these?

Lothar, a brick mason used to do this. He used to advertise in the service directory section of the Sun classifieds. Business name was Papke and Sons. I don't have his number handy....not sure if he is still around. He did the entry Walls for us and did a nice job.

We opted to concrete in the whole area to make it a nice courtyard, seating space. The photo shown left the two strips of landscaping along the sides. You can also have lights put on top of the pillars. I didn't see his ad in today's Sun...but Google turned up this page.
