Random don't mean that there is no repeating pattern.
If you want to reduce the succession, you can:
- Use another random seed.
- Add some slight texture changes: pigment and normals.
- Define one or two more bricks.
For the windows, as you are using individual bricks, remove the bricks
in the window's openings. Turn the bricks protuding into the window 90
degrees, or use some half bricks.
Old asphalt is much lighter, normaly, it's a relatively light gray.
