• Athens. The general T.R.R.Cobb Octagon house. The original rectangular section was built about 1830. Located at 194 Prince Street, the house was moved to Stone Mountain in the 1980s, and sat deteriorating for 20 years. In about 2003 the Watson_Brown Foundation paid to move the house back to Athens, and to restore it. The house now sits at 175 Hill Street, about 200 yards from its original location.
  
  Given the rectangular house as a gift by his father-in-law, Joseph H. Lumpkin, as a wedding gift in 1844 when marrying Lumpkin's daughter, Marion McHenry Lumpkin, large octagon structures were added to opposite sides of the house in the 1850s. The result is the house shown in a recent
