PARTIAL LISTING OF BUILDINGS & STRUCTURES
CONSTRUCTED WITH NATURAL CEMENT
Most of these buildings and structures are from references in “American Cements”, by Uriah Cummings, 1898, though some modern projects have also been listed. Cummings chose to list some of the most prominent, most challenging and most ambitious projects, but was by no means attempting to catalogue all of the projects utilizing natural cement. The evidence suggests that this list is only a small portion of the projects built utilizing the approximately 70 billion pounds of natural cement produced between 1818 and 1915.

Some of the structures listed no longer exist, while others are now known by different names. Modern references and photo links are being added as they become available. In our attempts to track the history and current status of these buildings and structures, we have found a number of them that have been demolished in order to build more modern structures. We have not found anything suggesting that any of them failed in any mechanical sense to perform or endure, however. Some of Cummings’ references are insufficiently detailed to distinguish among several similar structures or buildings, built in the same locality during the same period of time. Where our links and references involve speculation as to which of these structures are cited by Cummings, it is so noted. We welcome site visitors to augment the record, where they have detailed knowledge of local projects, and to submit current photographs for the record. Please also report any dead links.
