Maryville: Alcoa Aluminum and the Gateway to the Smokies
Maryville serves as the seat of Blount County in east Tennessee, about 15 miles south of Knoxville along US 321, with roughly 31,000 residents. The city developed in the nineteenth century as a county seat and expanded significantly in the twentieth century after the Aluminum Company of America (Alcoa) built smelting and rolling operations in the adjacent city of Alcoa, beginning in 1914, to use TVA-supplied hydroelectric power from the Little Tennessee River.
Maryville College, founded in 1819 as the Southern and Western Theological Seminary, is one of the oldest colleges in the South and sits on a campus south of downtown with roughly 1,100 students. The college maintains affiliations with the Presbyterian Church and holds a strong liberal arts academic program.
Maryville sits at the foot of the Great Smoky Mountains, with the national park entrance at Townsend about 20 miles to the southeast. Sam Houston, the future President of Texas and Governor of Tennessee, taught at a small schoolhouse in the Maryville area in the late 1810s before entering politics. The Sam Houston Schoolhouse is preserved as a historic site.
