FEATURED STORY

The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation recently honored the Atlanta Development Company, Architectural Collaborative, and contractor David Shepard with the Michael L. Starr Award for their work on the Braselton Cotton Gin in downtown Braselton. The award, named after former Georgia Trust and Georgia Cities Foundation board chair Mike Starr, recognizes exemplary historic rehabilitation projects that significantly impact their city's downtown.

The Braselton Cotton Gin, constructed around 1900, is a notable example of early 20th-century cotton gin structures. Its rehabilitation has been praised for reviving an important agricultural building in Northeast Georgia, now serving as the Braselton Brewing Company and a focal point for the town. The town of Braselton has a long history of commitment to historic preservation, with previous recognitions including a 1999 Award for Excellence in Rehabilitation for the Braselton Town Hall and a 2001 designation as a National Register of Historic Places District.
