The Atwater Serpentine Marble Quarry in Westfield near Westfield Mountain began operations in 1890, when that was depleted a second quarry was started in Russell near Russell Mountain. Dr. Anton graciously gave us the grand tour, complete with amazingly entact derrick and all buildings and machinery. This is private property but we can assure you it will be preserved for generations to come.
