New owner restores Butler Quarry

A passion for stone and rock quarries instilled by his dad is what drives Joe Vinci to return the Butler Quarry to its heydays of the 1960s.

Vinci, 55, bought the Butler Quarry at 1527 Falls Road on June 7, 2005, and immediately embarked on a rebuilding program that includes renovating the main office, buying high-tech equipment and reaching out to the former architects and customers who relish the unique silver/gray/brown stone that seems to bring a sense of class to a building.
