The marble industry and central Alabama rail networks converge in this 1915 survey of the region where the Coosa River meets the foothills of Kate Mountain. The industrial significance of the area is anchored by Gantts Quarry, a site central to the local economy and connected by the Louisville and Nashville and Central of Georgia railroads. These lines intersect at Gantts Junction, facilitating the transport of stone from the nearby Eureka Quarry.
