Originally known as Waltersville, it was renamed Granite in recognition of its principal product (the Woodstock Quartz Monzonite was quarried). The village was the center of this industry, which during its peak in the late 19th century provided building materials for major projects throughout the eastern seaboard. The Granite Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994. The Nike Missile Base BA-79 was located in Granite.〔(Granite Historical Society )〕 It was active from 1954 to 1974. In 1999, final scenes of The Blair Witch Project were filmed in a 200-year-old Griggs House in Patapsco Valley State Park. The state planned on demolishing the historic structure until publicity from the movie brought contributors for its preservation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0185937/locations?ref_=tt_dt_dt )〕 The house was demolished at a later date without an announcement. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Granite, Maryland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
