Rutland, Vermont is located near the Green Mountains on Otter Creek in central Vermont. Vermont's second fastest-growing city, Rutland is a commercial and manufacturing center in a major year-round resort area. Vermont's famous Killington Mountain Ski Resort and Pico Ski Area are just minutes away. First settled in about 1770, Rutland began life as a small hamlet called Mill Village. 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. Contemporary industries include the manufacture of medical equipment, textile goods, electrical supplies, paper products, machinery, aircraft accessories, iron castings and printed materials.
