Morris Memorial Building
Morris Memorial Building, Neoclassical office building in Downtown Nashville, United States
The Morris Memorial Building features grand stone columns, symmetrical windows, and classical architectural details across its multi-story structure at 330 Charlotte Avenue.
The National Baptist Convention commissioned this building in 1924, selecting McKissack & McKissack, one of the first African American architectural firms, for its design.
The structure stands as the last remaining building from Nashville's early 20th-century African American business district in the downtown area.
The building maintains its position on the National Register of Historic Places since 1985, ensuring its preservation for future generations.
Located on the former site of Commercial Hotel, which operated as a slave market before the Civil War, the building represents transformation in Nashville's history.
