Weymouth Granite at the University of Michigan
Weymouth Granite was used in the University of Michigan Law Quadrangle, a major Gothic Revival campus complex designed by York & Sawyer and constructed between 1924 and 1933.
The Society of Architectural Historians and Law School identify the Law Quadrangle walls as rock-faced and seam-faced Weymouth granite trimmed with Indiana limestone.”
The complex is inspired by James Gamble Rogers's Harkness Quadrangle at Yale (1916–1919), the finest Collegiate Gothic work in the country.
