Hattiesburg, Mississippi is known for being the "Hub City" but many residents have no clue why the city is pegged with this nickname.
Checkout my story below for more information on this historical cite that has impacted the city we love in:
Highlight Story: The Hub City's Train Depot
The Hattiesburg's Train Depot is a beautiful Train Station built in 1910 that has been renovated within the last few years. It is a working station but only has a handful of trains a day passing through. Hattiesburg was named the "Hub City" for its location at the crossing of rail lines. The city boomed as the center of the local lumber industry. Now the station is used for events and public meetings.
Nice job with your blog.
