Train Depot/Community Center in Holly Springs, GA11-13-2006Holly Springs was incorporated in 1906. In fact, it celebrated its centennial this summer. It is another railroad town built around a train depot for the L&N Railroad. The depot was restored in the 1990’s and is now the Town’s Community Center. Throughout the twentieth century, the town was supported mainly by agriculture and a lumber, but there was also gold mining and marble (verde antique) quarrying in the area. Nowadays, it’s coming very close to being engulfed by the Atlanta suburbs. 0 comments.Category: [Holly Springs]
