Saugerties - Opus 40, in upstate Saugerties, NY, is a [bluestone] quarry covering a half dozen or so acres that was bought in the 60s? by an Art (sculpture) professor from nearby Bard College. It's one huge sculpture. I've attended concerts and weddings there. The sculptor was killed when a truckload of [bluestone] rolled over him while he was working. An amazing place.
