There are many marble queries in the area. The Georgia Marble Company was the largest employer and provided housing, recreational facilities, and schools for workers and their families. Construction of a company power plant made Tate the first electrified town in the area. Georgia Marble Company stone can be found in monuments and public buildings around the world, including the Lincoln Memorial and the twenty-four columns of the east front of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C.
