The revitalizing historic downtown core built around the old granite quarries.
Rocklin's name comes from its granite: quarries that opened in the 1860s supplied stone for buildings across California and gave the town its early economy. The historic Quarry District downtown grew up around that industry and is being revitalized today, while Rocklin has become one of the region's newer master-planned cities.
