Description
It's funny that it's not just the beautiful vistas I remember from the observation deck on the top of Brasstown Bald. I found the 1960's architecture of the visitors center and ranger tower pretty amazing as well.
I'm fairly certain that tower would be regarded as Googie architecture. It has all the hallmarks of future Space-Age design to it while at the same time being covered in a skin of wood shakes! After all it is in the midst of the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest so I guess they felt it should have some outdoors cabin charm to go along with the future-forward Space-Age design!
I wonder how many other people come back from the top of a mountain with photos of architecture, but sometimes the best scene is literally right in front of us like this out-of-this-world ranger tower on the observation deck at Brasstown Bald.
