John Sevier State Office Building - Nashville

John Sevier State Office Building - Nashville

Located next door to the Tennessee State Capitol, this government building opened in 1940 as the Tennessee State Office Building as part of the New Deal Public Works Administration program. The Streamlined Classical design from local architect Emmons Woolwine is seen in the monumental scale of the pilasters and cornice and the simplified classical details of the building. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.
