Fidelity Building, Renaissance Revival office building in Knoxville, United States.
The Fidelity Building displays gray marble walls, square Corinthian columns, and an ashlar veneer facade with a recessed entrance featuring an eagle-and-garland frieze.
Built in 1871 for Cowan, McClung and Company, the structure underwent substantial modifications in 1929 when it became the headquarters of Fidelity-Bankers Trust Company.
The building exemplifies the commercial growth of Knoxville during the late nineteenth century, when the city developed into a major wholesaling center in Tennessee.
The structure currently houses the H.T. Hackney wholesale grocery distribution headquarters and includes plans for a ground-floor grocery store implementation.
The rear section of the building maintains its original 1871 design elements, while the front facade reflects the 1929 architectural modifications.
