East Point: 125 Years Ago, Part Three

This is the third in a series of highlights from East Point’s history

leading up to its incorporation in 1887.

Much of the land near the railroads and emerging businesses in East

Point was still in cultivation or timberland up until the late 1800s.

Farms only three miles from its center encircled East Point and relied

on its businesses and services. Familiar place names include Perk-

erson, Connally and Stone. Much of that farmland is now absorbed

by the Atlanta airport, Fort McPherson, Greenbriar Mall and subur-

ban development.

Yet, during the 1880s, industry and housing expanded in East Point.

Main Street was constructed all the way along the railroad line. Com-

muter trains ran in and out of Atlanta….$.35 one-way fare. Popula-

tion increased…. in 1880, 195 residents; by 1890, 738. Real estate

development burgeoned.

On August 31, 1886, East Point citizens met to make plans to incor-

porate. The meeting was interrupted by the Charleston earthquake,

one of the most severe in the Southeast. Major damage occurred as

far away as Tybee Island, structural damage as far as Ohio and trem-

ors were felt as far as Boston. Undeterred, East Pointers met again a

few days later to prepare the petition for incorporation.

Georgia’s General Assembly granted the charter on August 3, 1887.

Governor John B. Gordon signed the charter on August 10, 1887.

The charter set the city limits: the central point was where the At-

lanta and West Point Railroad and the Central of Georgia Railroad

split (just north of Cleveland Avenue); 1 mile east to west and 1 and

3/8 miles north to south. Today, those city limits are generally on

the north near St. Joseph Avenue, east near Bayard Street, south near

Morris Avenue and west near Semmes Street.

Seven alderman were named: L.M. Hill, J. F. Allison, S.L. Holcomb,

S.N. Thompson, J.W. Burk, J.B. Moore, and S.A. Taylor. Hill was

later elected Chair and Thompson, City Clerk.

East Point was on its way!
