The Old Bricks

Built in 1839 for workers in the Roswell Cotton Mill, these apartments were the first built in the South and are believed to be the oldest in the United States. In 1864 they briefly served as a hospital for wounded Federal soldiers. In 1955 the Roswell Library Association was formed to purchase, preserve, and restore the building while also providing ample library facilities for the community.
