Summary
[edit]DescriptionUnited States Post Office and Federal Courthouse, Main Street, Knoxville, TN - 52465082693.jpg |
English: Built in 1932-34, this Art Deco, Art Moderne, and Stripped Classical Revival-style Post Office and Federal Building was designed by Baumann and Baumann to replace the earlier Old Custom House and Post Office in Downtown Knoxville on Market Street, which had been outgrown by the needs of the federal agencies and postal services. The building was renovated in 1964, obscuring most of the original interior features and reconfiguring the upper floors, with the changes to the building’s lobbies and first floor hallways being undone during a 2003 renovation to the first floor that restored the original ceilings and modernized the building, carried out under the direction of Cope Associates Architects. The building was home to the Federal District Court in Knoxville and many local offices of various Federal agencies until the 1990s, when these functions moved to the Howard Baker, Jr., Federal Courthouse nearby. The four-story building is clad in Tennessee Marble, with two interior light courts on the upper two floors, with a red marble base, aluminum windows, decorative grilles, and spandrel panels, fluted pilasters, lantern and sconce-style Art Deco light fixtures, decorative aluminum doors with aluminum screens on the transoms above, smooth-faced pilasters flanking the two front entry doors with eagle sculptures at the top, a front light court that provides natural light to the basement, obscured behind a short red marble wall topped with lantern-style light fixtures, several rooftop penthouses, and a rear loading dock. The building’s interior features many art deco flourishes, with decorative ceilings, chandeliers, marble pilasters, decorative aluminum windows and grilles, and terrazzo floors. The building is presently home to the Downtown Knoxville branch of the United States Post Office, the Tennessee State Criminal Court of Appeals, and the Tennessee Supreme Court’s Eastern Division. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. |
