50 years ago, even 60, that intersection was known as 5 points and has been commercial even longer. It was the sight of an ABC store, the closest for Chatham County residents. Gas station, massage parlor, appliance store, et al. The increase in traffic has come with the four lane of 15-501.
For comparison, Cole Park Plaza intersection at the time was only a side road west and all the other corners were woods and fallow meadows.
