For 165 years, Marietta has played an important role in both the government and growth of the state of Georgia. Established as the seat of Cobb County in 1834, Marietta has grown from a celebrated resort town into a thriving, prosperous community. Unlike other communities where rapid development and huge increases in population diminish the city's original character, Marietta has retained its unique identity as a small southern town. Included in this volume of more than 200 vintage photographs, drawings, and maps are accounts of Marietta's war-time experiences, the early pioneers in education and health care, and the industries such as Lockheed that altered the course of the city's history. Divided into six distinct time periods, from the birth of the city to the fast-paced days of the late twentieth century, Marietta: 1833-2000 is a scrapbook of memories for longtime residents and a tool for newcomers who want to learn more about the area. Homes, churches, local businesses, and notable residents are all featured within these pages, and offer a glimpse of what Marietta was like in days gone by.

St. Joseph Catholic Church has had a long history in Athens, Georgia. The church started out in a small wooden building in 1881, with masses possible only once a month. The community has grown and expanded from inhabiting a tiny lot to a property close to 50 acres. "The parish of St. Joseph is unique in its involvement and activity in the many areas of parish and community life. As of spring 2012 we presently have 1100 registered, active families in the parish. Under the guidance of Fr. David McGuiness in 2005, fund raising was started to procure property and build a new church/school campus. The new school and multi-purpose building opened in 2012 and a church is planned for the new campus on Epps Bridge Parkway in Clarke County" (St. Joseph). St. Joseph approached the College of Environment + Design at the University of Georgia to help them design an educational and beautiful new property. The students were fifth year seniors, all with different wasy to achieve these goals. This book shows the processes of one of the designs from start to finish. A design has to undergo many steps. To begin, after visiting the site, the property was analyzed concerning hydrology, slope and vegetation. Surveys were collected from the faculty at St. Joseph Catholic School. The surveys included a list of wishes and dreams, which were useful in designing the site and creating a master plan. Smaller spaces were shown in detail following the master plan. Technical drawings are provided, from construction plans to a planting palette. The site is designed for students, adults, volunteers, religious followers, and anyone else who might be involved with St. Joseph Catholic Church.
