Beck and Beck Granite Shed
By Seeker
The Beck and Beck Granite Shed, located at 34 Granite Street in Barre, Vermont, is a historic granite processing facility built in 1933. It is a rare example of a rectangular granite shed, designed to facilitate the movement of granite, particularly for creating cemetery markers. Established by German immigrant ironworkers, the Beck and Beck Company operated until 1960. The building features a unique architectural design with multiple connected structures and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011. Today, it serves as a non-profit organization, ReSOURCE, which focuses on repurposing building materials and providing job training, making it a point of interest for both tourists and researchers.
