This Italianate building on Knoxville's Market Square was designed by Joseph Baumann and built in 1875 for Peter Kern. Kern was a German immigrant who opened this as a confectionery store and later became mayor.
This building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Mall Building, and also had the name of Odd Fellows Hall. Today, the top two floors are the Hotel St. Oliver, while the Tupelo Honey Cafe is on the ground floor.
