Help! Reuse? Grasscrete/Turfstone

2 years ago
Years ago we installed Turfstone on the driveway. It was nice for a few years, but ultimately proved a mistake given the drought and need for maintenance. I want to reuse it for SOMETHING. Any ideas? Has anyone put flat pavers over it, or repurposed it for landscape walls, planters, or......? I want to relandscape the front yard, and the thought of pulling out all this concrete and not finding another use for it is distressing.
Maybe if we lived in a rainy place it would have worked. It did the job of a driveway and has stayed level and flat, but digging out each little square to replenish the soil (did that: never again) is crazy, and the drought makes watering it truly foolish. It has become a trip hazard and heat sink. I did a trial of pebbles, but they scatter and get underfoot. So now it's not only ugly but also difficult to walk on.
Big flat pavers over it? Any other Repurposing ideas? Experiences? I hope somebody out there can help! thanks!
