East Main Street-Johnson Street Historic District

Two of Hogansville's principal streets form this L-shaped historic district of about 85 acres in Troup County, Georgia. East Main Street runs east from downtown, and Johnson Street runs north toward the Stark Mill and mill village. The houses date from the 1860s to the 1940s and include Georgian-plan dwellings, Queen Anne houses, Craftsman bungalows, gabled-ell houses and Tudor Revival homes. Larger houses on bigger lots stand close to downtown, with smaller houses on regularly spaced lots toward the edges. Community landmarks include the Hogan family cemetery, established about 1830, and the Hogansville High School campus. The campus has a 1930 Colonial Revival auditorium, a Civilian Conservation Corps gymnasium from 1935, a National Youth Corps amphitheater from 1939-1940 and a 1916 concrete water tower. The district was recognized for its architecture and for showing how the town's early residential neighborhoods grew between about 1830 and 1946.
