Project

Natural sandstone blocks and flooring, quarried in Butler, PA, were used to create this stunning water feature on the North Shore of Pittsburgh.

The sandstone was arranged in a specific pattern to allow the water to flow over the blocks and also to create pools for wading. The durable sandstone paving material provides a non-slip walking surface in the pools.
