Discover the beauty and craftsmanship behind Houston Waters, a standout public art installation in downtown Houston, Texas. The project features two Rockville® White granite water sculptures paired with flowing serpentine benches that create an inviting focal point for the community.

Designed by artist Brad J. Goldberg, the natural stone structure ranges from 7 to 8 feet in diameter and 9 to 11 feet tall, forming striking water features where rippled surfaces interact with water and light. A combination of thermal, Diamond® 8, and polished finishes enhances the visual movement as water glides over each form.

We take pride in helping bring visionary designs like Houston Waters to life through timeless natural materials and expert craftsmanship.

Knowing how to properly refinish a bronze memorial is key to preserving its beauty and protecting it for years to come. During a recent hands-on session at Worthington Monuments in Burleson, Texas, Byron Nistler from our Foundry team demonstrated the full process from stripping the existing finish, repainting the surface, sanding and polishing letters, and applying a clear coat for long-lasting protection.

It was a great opportunity to share knowledge and best practices for preserving the beauty and integrity of bronze memorials.

In 1909, the Rockville granite operation, which would later become Coldspring®, began the century with an impressive contract to fabricate the columns for the Rotunda of the new Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul.

Shaped from Minnesota granite and crafted with remarkable precision, these massive columns are still stand today as a testament of skill, pride, and craftsmanship of early stoneworkers. That same commitment to quality and innovation continues at Coldspring more than a century later.

From historic landmarks to modern architectural projects, we are proud to help shape places that stand the test of time.
