This Georgian Revival building, completed in 1923 at a cost of $300,000, was the third Denmark office of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. In 1898, long-distance lines from Virginia to Georgia and from Alabama to Charleston crossed here, making Denmark an excellent choice for a switching station. When it opened, it was described as the most modern telephone plant in the south, and for many years it carried calls from New York to Florida and from Alabama to the East Coast.
