Unique Blue Limestone Facade
Subject
Choice of Stone
Description
The blue limestone on this fascade was salvaged from the abandoned Ruins of Fort de Chartres and re-purposed for this building.
The blue limestone may have been chosen, due to it's rarity and uniqueness, since the only source for this particular stone had been a mine built by the French Army east of Fort Chartres.
