CEMENT IN TEXAS

In Brackenridge Park area, San Antonio.
Historical info on the sign above, never was informed on Portland till now, very interesting place, Japanese Tea gardens just above, in the old rock quarry, all the buildings made from rock of the quarry, stop in if you have time, it's worth it.
Thanks for checking in.

    Thank you for history lesson, I was not familiar with the history of Portland cement either.

    The gardens are beautiful as well. We have so many beautiful and historical sites in Texas hope one day I can visit some of them.
