HistoryThe first settlers arrived in what is now Thompson's Station in the late 18th century. The community was originally known as "White House," but changed its name to "Littlebury" in 1836.[1] After the arrival of the railroad in 1855, Dr. Elijah Thompson donated land for a town and train station, and the community was thus renamed for him.[1] On March 5, 1863, during the Civil War, the Battle of Thompson's Station was fought, with Confederate forces led by General Earl Van Dorn defeating Union forces under Colonel John Coburn.[1] GeographyThompson's Station is located at {{Coord|35|47|55|N|86|54|26|W|type:city}} (35.798670, -86.907341).[6] It is approximately 25 miles south of Nashville, just south of Franklin, and just north of Spring Hill. The Town includes several parks:[7]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of {{convert|21.6|sqmi|km2}}. GovernmentThe community voted to incorporate in August 1990 with resident David Lee Coleman chosen as the first mayor. The community elects 4 at-large aldermen and mayor who meet monthly at Board of Mayor and Aldermen meetings. 2 aldermen are elected every two years with the mayor elected every four years.[8] In Early 2015, the Town embarked on a city planning process to update the Zoning regulations. After gathering public input, the Town worked with planning consultants to create the Land Development Ordinance that went on to receive the Driehaus Award's Honorable Mention for form-based code in 2016.
