Well in fairness a Dryvit type finish system might not even have been used here, i was just tossing out possibilities.
The issue is the foundation over which the finish was applied. Dryvit type products by the way are applied in the same manner the old school products were, by hand using a hawk and trowel, and can be used as a finish on masonry walls as well.
