Title A name given to the resource McKenzie Building Description An account of the resource Location: 105 E College Ave. in Ashburn, GA National Register of Historic Places #: 92001042, Ashburn Commercial Historic District James Simon Shingler (August 25, 1859 – September 30, 1943) constructed what is known as the McKenzie building located in downtown Ashburn, Georgia in 1906. This 8000 sq feet (per floor), two-story structure was built to be used as an office complex. When it was first built, it was originally called the Shingler building but gradually became known to everyone by the current name after Gordon Columbus McKenzie (February 10, 1885 – 2/25/1958). He had offices upstairs where he made farm operations and long-term land loans for at least a decade, possibly longer. In fact, you can still see his name painted on several office doors upstairs (pictured below). Despite the name change, it was still a family affair because J.S. Shingler’s daughter Clyde Shingler McKenzie (Nov 15, 1887 – June 30, 1934) was married to G.C. McKenzie.
