This quarry was "in the town of Waldoboro, 1 ½ miles north of Waldoboro village, on the Boston & Maine Railroad." The operator was the Booth Bros. & Hurricane Isle Granite Co., 208 Broadway, New York. The granite from the quarry was reportedly a medium-gray shade, "a trifle darker than 'Hallowell granite" and still darker than "North Jay granite." It had a fine to medium texture. Transport of the granite was by cart 1,300 feet (and 120 feet down) from the quarry to the mill, and then by cars 19 miles to the wharf at Rockland. "The distance from the quarry to tidewater at Waldoboro is only 1 ½ miles, but the water there is only 11 feet deep at high tide."
The Waldoboro Quarry was opened in 1860. In 1905 the quarry measured "400 feet N. 59° E. to S. 52O w, by 140 feet across, and was 60 to 85 feet deep." The quarry was not operated in 1916, and it was abandoned at the time of the report.
Granite from the Waldoboro Quarry was used for buildings and monuments but not polished work. Waste was used for paving and road ballast. "About 250,000 paving blocks were shipped annually, mostly to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania."
Granite from the Waldoboro Quarry was used in the following examples: the Buffalo Savings Bank in Buffalo, New York; the Armory, boat house, and cadets' quarters at the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland; the Crockett monument in the Acorn Cemetery in Rockland, Maine; Chemical National Bank, "platforms" for sidewalk around Schwab Building, and Riverside Drive, New York.
