MACON, Ga. (AP) - Fort Valley's Freight Depot once served as the agricultural gateway for the Georgia city's bustling cotton and peach industries.
The Telegraph reports that now, after decades of neglect, the structure is literally falling apart in the town about 90 miles (145 kilometers) south of Atlanta.
The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation recently declared the depot one of 10 endangered historic sites on its 2018 "Places in Peril" list.
The annual list is meant to raise awareness about Georgia's important historic, archaeological and cultural resources that are threatened by such things as demolition, neglect or lack of maintenance.
Other sites on the list include a department store in Oglethorpe County; a school in Muscogee County; a water tower in Randolph County; and a fire station in Floyd County, among others.
