Stark Mill, 117 Corinth Road, Hogansville, Troup County, GA

Significance: Starting in the early 20th century textile production was an important component of the local economy in Hogansville, Georgia. Stark Mill was built in 1923-24 by Lockwood Greene Engineers to transfer operations from Manchester, New Hampshire to a new Southern location. Transferring operations also gave Lockwood Greene Engineers the opportunity to build an up-to-date textile production facility. The new Stark Mill featured reinforced-concrete construction and an air conditioning system, reflecting the structural and technological developments of 1920s textile mill architecture.
