Abstract
The article reports on the adaptation of limestone to foster diversity, both ecological and culturaly. The Marble Cliff Quarry Co., headquartered in Upper Arlington, Ohio, operated the largest limestone quarry in the U.S. from its opening in the mid-19th century until its sale in approximately 1985. Its three large pits are sunken beneath the site's bounding roads and is of particular significance.
