Throwback Thursday: Atmore's First Traffic Light

Last Updated 12/16/2021


It is never too early to dream about Christmas time in Downtown Atmore! 
Did you know...The first automobile in Atmore was owned by M.M.Brooks in 1900. In the 1920s, the first traffic light was placed in service. It stood on a pedestal in the middle of Main St. and Nashville Ave. (the old First National Bank corner)-- right in the intersection shown in this graphic!!!

The more we know the more we love about our hometown Atmore, AL. Stay tuned for the weekly Throwback Thursday post HERE or on our Facebook Page
