In Finland they occasionally cut granite next to walkways using waterjets when they are building new roads or expanding old ones. It looks absolutely stunning and is smooth as marble. Unfortunately this is very rarely done, which is probably because of how long it takes and how much water and abrasive is requierd - most of the time they just explode or chop off the granite pieces that are in the way. But damn, when they use the waterjet, it's like installing a permanent art piece on the street, absolutely amazing. And because it's so smooth, the graffiti assholes don't paint on it since the paint doesn't stick and is easily removed.
