| 説明 | Built circa 1904, this Flemish Revival and Classical Revival-style railroad passenger station was designed by Frank Pierce Milburn for the Southern Railway to serve as a passenger station for the city of Knoxville. The building originally featured a clock tower, which was removed in 1945, and featured tall arched window bays on each face of the tower, turrets at each corner of the clock faces, and a hipped roof with a weather vane at the top. The building features a painted brick exterior, stepped gable parapets, a hipped and gabled roof, triple vents on the gable ends, doubled one-over-one windows with transoms with roman lattice motifs on the second floor, a cornice with modillions, a rusticated stone base, brackets at the eaves of the roof on the first floor, a pedestrian bridge from adjacent Depot Avenue, an entry door at the end of the pedestrian bridge with a transom and a trim panel above with the words “Southern Railway” emblazoned on it, and several entry door from the adjacent train platform. The building served as a passenger station until 1970, when the final passenger service, the “Birmingham Special,” ceasing operations, with the building having since been adaptively reused as an office building and winery, with vintage train cars parked on the tracks adjacent to the canopy of the passenger platform. The building is a contributing structure in the Southern Warehouse and Terminal Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. |
