The city was simply a small hamlet on the Otter Creek called Mill Village
in the town of Rutland in the early part of the Nineteenth century.
In the early 1800s, small high-quality marble deposits were discovered
in Rutland, and in the 1830s a large deposit of nearly solid marble
of high quality was found in what is now West Rutland. By the 1840s
small firms had begun operations, but marble quarries only became profitable
when the railroad came to Rutland in 1851. As fate would have it, the
famous quarries of Carrara in Tuscany, Italy, became largely unworkable
because of their extreme depth at the same time, and Rutland quickly
became one of the leading producers of marble in the world. This fueled
enough growth and investment that in 1886 the marble companies saw to
it that the center of town was incorporated as Rutland village, and
most of the town was split off as West Rutland and Proctor, which contained
the bulk of the marble quarries. Rutland City was incorporated as Vermont's
third city on November 18, 1892. Since that time, Rutland has grown
into the major urban center of southern Vermont. Shopping, dining, entertainment,
and work can be found in Rutland, and its industries support many southern
Vermonters. Although the closing of the marble quarries in the area
in the 1980s and 1990s cost the area many jobs, Rutland has remained
a vibrant small city. Major employers of the area are General Electric,
OMYA, and Experian.
