Lannon stone
Lannon stone, a type of limestone or dolomite, is named for the town, as it was quarried here. John Halquist built one of the state’s largest stone companies from Lannon stone first in Sussex, Wisconsin, and then in several locations.
Lannon stone was the major source of stone for many cities in Wisconsin and for Chicago. It was widely used to provide a stone veneer on bridges.
Lannon stone is variously asserted to be limestone rather than dolomite, or to be limestone which is also known as dolomite. Menonomee Park has been described as an excellent place to photograph Lannon stone.
