Allenhurst’s Historic District was declared on January 22, 2013. This district is on Dunlevie Road from the Railroad track to entrance of Waters Estates. It encompasses the remaining 6 houses and one barn from when the Town was built in 1909.
In 1910 Byers H. Allen and Ernest V. Dunlevie incorporated the Allenhurst Store Company. In 1911 Dunlevie, Henry Cochran, and Capt. William J. Robertson bought out Allen’s interest and incorporated the Dunlevie Lumber Company, which bought up large tracts of land in the area, for 50 cents an acre enlarged the sawmill, and employed a larger number of persons in the sawmill business. The town of Allenhurst was built largely by the Dunlevie Lumber Company. Although most of the 100 houses owned by the Lumber Company have been torn down or destroyed by fire, six remain.
In Allenhurst’s heyday (1910-1928) there were wooden sidewalks, a large hotel, a post office, a school, a large company store and a baseball field. Allenhurst lit its homes with electricity furnished by a generator at the lumber mill. Allenhurst is home to an estimated 800 people but the town has expanded yearly as military families settle in areas surrounding Fort Stewart.
