Greenville, Georgia is the county seat of Merriweather County, located about 50 miles from Atlanta. Founded in 1827, today the town has a population of less than 900 people. It was named for Revolutionary War hero Nathaniel Greene. The iconic courthouse was built in 1903 but suffered damage from a fire in the 1976. The historic downtown has a number of shops and restaurants.
Most of the businesses in downtown Greenville look to be shutdown and the area is bare. Are there plans to revitalize the downtown area around the court house?
