Chattanooga State Office Building
Chattanooga State Office Building, Historic government building in downtown Chattanooga, United States.
The seven-story limestone structure at 540 McCallie Avenue features a ruby granite lower section and gray-white limestone upper sections with architectural details from the 1950s.
The building, completed in 1954 as headquarters for Interstate Life Insurance Company, became state property in 1981 for government offices at a cost of $5.85 million.
A bronze frieze near the McCallie Avenue entrance displays artwork by a Tennessee sculptor representing the mountain character of Southeast Tennessee residents.
The structure requires $8.49 million in renovations to update heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems as the University of Tennessee considers future development plans.
The National Trust for Historic Preservation listed this building among America's Most Endangered Historic Places in 2014, prompting increased preservation efforts.
