The district houses many commercial spaces, it is also home to many government related offices--though the courthouse has relocated. A island in the road contains the Civil War monument and another to C.W. Long; he also has a museum dedicated to his life and work nearby. The square is located at the intersection of US Highways 11 and 129, though a new bypass carries a lot of traffic around instead of through town.
