FedExForum

Das FedExForum ist eine Multifunktionsarena in der US-amerikanischen Stadt Memphis im Bundesstaat Tennessee. Sie dient hauptsächlich als Spielstätte des Basketball-Franchise der Memphis Grizzlies aus der National Basketball Association (NBA) und der NCAA-College-Basketballmannschaft der Memphis Tigers (American Athletic Conference) der University of Memphis, welche beide zuvor in der Memphis Pyramid spielten. Der Spitzname geht auf den Grizzlies-Spieler Tony Allen zurück; der die Halle als The Grindhouse bezeichnete. Dies übernahmen die Grizzlies-Fans. Geschichte Die Arena öffnete im September 2004 nach vielen Debatten und einem Sturm, welcher im Juli 2003 beinahe die an den Bauarbeiten beteiligten Kräne zerstörte. Die Baukosten von etwa 250 Mio. US-Dollar wurden aus öffentlichen Geldern finanziert. Das in Memphis ansässige Kurier- und Logistikunternehmen FedEx Corporation wurde für 92 Mio. US-Dollar Namenssponsor. Die Arena bietet 18.119 Plätze für Basketballspiele, es besteht aber auch die Möglichkeit Eishockeyspiele, Konzerte und Familienshows auszurichten.

FedExForum

Le FedExForum est une salle omnisports située à Memphis, dans le Tennessee. Depuis 2004, c'est le parquet des Grizzlies de Memphis de la National Basketball Association et de l'équipe masculine de basket-ball de l'Université de Memphis, les Memphis Tigers. Le FedExForum a une capacité de 18 165 places pour le basket-ball, 12 633 pour le hockey sur glace et dispose de 75 suites de luxe et 2 500 sièges de club. Histoire La salle précédente des Grizzlies de Memphis et des Tigers de Memphis était la Pyramid Arena. Les travaux de la nouvelle arène commencèrent le 20 juin 2002 et le bâtiment fut ouvert au public le 6 septembre 2004. Le FedExForum fut construit pour un coût de 250 millions de dollars (issus de la Memphis Public Building Authority) et il est actuellement possédé par la ville de Memphis ; FedEx paie 4,5 millions de dollars par an pour les droits d'appellation qui arriveront à échéance en 2022. L'accord de 20 ans est d'une valeur totale de 90 millions de dollars. La salle a également les possibilités d'accueillir des matchs de hockey sur glace et des concerts. Le FedExForum fut conçu par le cabinet d'architectes Ellerbe Becket. Il couvre une surface de 75 000 mètres carrés. La salle était la première arène à utiliser les nouvelles horloges « see-through » (voir à travers) qui permettent aux spectateurs assis derrière le panier de voir l'action du match sans que l'horloge interfère leurs champ de vision. L'idée est venue quand un fan de la National Basketball Association et des Nets du New Jersey qui était assis derrière le panier du Izod Center a envoyé un courriel au commissaire de la ligue David Stern, demandant la technologie pour améliorer sa vision du match. Ces nouvelles horloges ont été installées au Wachovia Center, Time Warner Cable Arena, TD Banknorth Garden, Rose Garden Arena et Philips Arena. La salle accueille chaque année le tournoi de basket-ball masculin de la Conference USA depuis 2005. Elle sera l'emplacement d'une des quatre finales régionales du Championnat NCAA de basket-ball de 2009, et l'une des quatre finales régionales du Championnat NCAA de basket-ball féminin de 2010.

Knoxville City-County Building

The Knoxville City-County Building is a building at 400 Main Street in Knoxville, Tennessee that houses the offices of the city government of Knoxville and the county government of Knox County, Tennessee. It also houses the Knox County Jail. The building stands ten stories, and contains 534,000 square feet (49,600 m2) of office space. At the time it was built it was said to be the largest office building in Tennessee. The building was completed in 1980, 50 years after a combined city-county government building was first proposed. Businessman Jim Haslam is considered responsible for the success of the initiative to build it. The cost of the building was $26 million, much of it funded by municipal bond issues (the bonds were paid off in 2001). The building was designed by Knoxville architect Bruce McCarty and his firm, McCarty Bullock Holsaple. Almost immediately after opening, the jail struggled with overcrowding issues. In 1986, a class action lawsuit was filed in federal court, claiming the jail was too crowded, and three years later, a judge ruled the facility unconstitutional. When the county failed to resolve the issue, the judge ruled the county in contempt of court, forcing the county to build a new facility, which opened in October 1994. The building was plagued with security concerns due to bomb threats during the mid-1990s. Two mail bombs were delivered to Knox County District Attorney Randy Nichols in March 1994 and May 1994, respectively, forcing the building's evacuation. The building was again evacuated in November 1995, following a bomb threat. See also List of mayors of Knoxville, Tennessee Knox County Courthouse (Tennessee) Old City Hall (Knoxville) References

Lawson McGhee Library

The Lawson McGhee Library is the main library of Knox County Public Library in Knoxville, Tennessee. It is located at 500 West Church Avenue in downtown Knoxville. It is currently the oldest, continuously operating public library in Tennessee. History The library was established in 1885 with a $50,000 donation from Knoxville businessman Charles McClung McGhee, and named for McGhee's daughter, May Lawson McGhee, who had died suddenly in 1883. The library was initially located on the second floor of the Rebori Building. This was due to the first floor being purposefully occupied by several businesses, so the library could have income from the business' commercial use of the floor. It had a collection of 4,000-6,000 books. In 1904, the library burned from a fire and was forced to move. Because the income from the building's businesses was still available after its recovery from the fire, the library was able to maintain and improve at a new site, now under the city as Lawson McGhee Library, without financial issue. The city's public library system opened in 1916 and the building of the library's new location was finished in 1917. Despite its status as a free public library, the municipal Lawson McGhee Library only served white patrons, leading to the formation of an additional segregated library branch. With $10,000 donated by Andrew Carnegie in 1916, the Free Colored Library opened in Knoxville on 1918 and was governed by the Lawson McGhee's board. It would eventually close in 1961. Another segregated branch, the Murphy Branch Library, opened in 1930. Years prior to this library opening, in 1817, a group of forty-eight Knoxville residents established the Knoxville Library Company, the city’s first organized library, and the earliest formal library initiative in East Tennessee. The subscription-based library, incorporated by the Tennessee legislature, was open to members on Saturday afternoons and offered books on subjects such as botany, rhetoric, biography, and exploration. Though records are limited, the library flourished for at least seven years. There was only one woman among the 48 members, Margaret Cowan Humes Ramsey. Her love for books and education was passed on to her son Thomas William Humes, who became the Lawson McGhee Library's first hired librarian. The library celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2011 with tours of the original location on the at the Rebori Building at 125 South Gay Street. Steve Cotham, the manager of the McClung Historical Collection of the Knox County Public Library, was there to provide information to guests. The current Lawson McGhee Library building was designed by architect Bruce McCarty. Gallery References External links Official website
World's Fair Park

World's Fair Park is a public park in downtown Knoxville, Tennessee. The park sits on the former fairgrounds of the 1982 World's Fair hosted in Knoxville. Today, the park is home to the Sunsphere and the Tennessee Amphitheater, the two remaining structures from the exposition. Overview The park features a festival and performance lawn, a small lake with a fountain, and the Sunsphere. The 5-acre (2.0 ha) performance lawn is used for cultural and community events. Knoxville's Public Building Authority manages the park, except for the Sunsphere. The Knoxville Museum of Art, the Knoxville Convention Center, and the L&N STEM Academy, at the former Louisville and Nashville station, surround the park. To the west of the park borders a building known as the Candy Factory, which formerly housed the South, Littlefield & Steere Company and its factory. During the fair, the Candy Factory building was used by administration. Recently, the building was renovated into office, gallery, and rehearsal space, and later into condominiums. The Knoxville District K&A Line, operated by the Norfolk Southern Railway, starts at northernmost part of the park and ends in Maryville in nearby Blount County. As of 2019, the tracks are being considered by urban developers and city councilmembers for a conversion into a light rail line. History Before the fair, the site was used as a railroad yard. The land was converted into park space for the 1982 World's Fair. After the fair closed in October 1982, the site was cleaned up; the city had to demolish pavilions, remove graffiti, and remove homeless individuals from the remaining abandoned buildings. Throughout the rest of the 1980s and into the early 1990s, the Sunsphere and U.S. Pavilion were left without tenants. In 1991, the U.S. Pavilion was demolished by implosion due to structural damage caused by neglect. In 2007, the Sunsphere began to see occupancy. Today, it currently houses offices and a public observation deck. In 2018, the Knoxville City Council approved a $2.5-million renovation of the Sunsphere and Amphitheater, updating the Sunsphere's elevators, replacing HVAC units, repairing windows, and repainting the exterior of both structures. In 2019, the park's performance lawn closed for a $3 million renovation, and reopened later in July of the same year. In 2019, the Knoxville Marathon's finish line was relocated to the park, due to renovations at Neyland Stadium, the location of the original finish line.

Jimmy Mann Evans Memorial Bridge

The Jimmy Mann Evans Memorial Bridge is a 0.5-mile-long (0.80 km), steel stringer, multibeam bridge which carries Interstate 40 (I-40) across Kentucky Lake, part of the Tennessee River, in the western part of the U.S. state of Tennessee. The bridge also spans the boundaries between Benton and Humphreys counties and the western and middle parts of the state. Description The Jimmy Mann Evans Memorial Bridge carries four lanes of I-40 on a single span across the Kentucky Lake impoundment of the Tennessee River. This is the historical boundary between Middle and West Tennessee, as defined in the Tennessee State Constitution. West of the bridge is a causeway above a floodplain created by Kentucky Dam. History Construction began on the bridge on November 29, 1962. The bridge was the largest project on I-40 between Memphis and Nashville. The bridge was completed on July 21, 1965. The entire project cost $4.62 million (equivalent to $35 million in 2024). The segment of I-40 between Memphis and Nashville, the first section of interstate completed between two major cities in Tennessee, was dedicated on July 24, 1966, in a ceremony officiated by then-governor Frank G. Clement and U.S. Senator Albert Gore Sr. on the bridge. The bridge was renovated in 1992 and named after Jimmy Mann Evans who served as president of the Tennessee Road Builders Association and as commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) from 1987 until his death in 1992. The murder of Holly Bobo reportedly took place underneath the bridge in April 2011. See also List of crossings of the Tennessee River References
