The
Playhouse Theatre of Rutland
 In
1914, The Playhouse Theatre of Rutland was
considered by many to be one of the finest
theaters in New England through the early
part of the 20th century. Today as we embark
on the 21st century The Paramount as it has
been known since the early 1930’s has
been completely restored as the “Jewel
of Downtown Rutland." |

Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical
Park
 Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller
National Historical Park is the only national
park to focus on conservation history and
the evolving nature of land stewardship in
America. Opened in June 1998, Vermont's first
national park preserves and interprets the
historic Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller property.
The Park is named for George Perkins Marsh,
one of the nation's first global environmental
thinkers, who grew up on the property, and
for Frederick Billings, an early conservationist
who established a progressive dairy farm and
professionally managed forest on the former
Marsh farm. Frederick Billings's granddaughter,
Mary French Rockefeller, and her husband,
conservationist Laurance S. Rockefeller, sustained
Billings's mindful practices in forestry and
farming on the property over the latter half
of the 20th century. In 1983, they established
the Billings Farm & Museum to continue
the farm's working dairy and to interpret
rural Vermont life and agricultural history.
