We have supplied our Stony Creek Granite to the Columbia University campus for over a century. The campus was designed along Beaux Arts  planning principles by the architects McKim , Mead & White. Today we continue the legacy by continuing to work collaboratively with Columbia to match the existing historic granite with the same Stony Creek Granite for new projects and restoration.
