I lived in Knoxville for over a year before I ever went downtown. When my sister and my oldest son came to visit in April, we made it a point to explore downtown Knoxville.
We drove around downtown, stopping at the sphere, and then we strolled through Market Square. We wanted to have lunch in one of the local restaurants, but it was a madhouse with over an hour wait in every place we tried. We stopped at O’Charley’s on the way home, which was really good.
My sister went back the next day and took some really nice photographs of downtown Knoxville. Here are some of the photos:
-
- Market Square
-
- Knoxville 1982 Worlds Fair Park Amphitheater

- Knoxville Gay Street Bridge

This book has some fantastic photographs of early Knoxville. Just one or two make it worth paying for.

I created this blog just so I could write about anything and everything that comes to mind, whatever I feel like saying, whenever I feel like posting. This is not a Christian-only site or a political board filled with propaganda and rhetoric. I want my blog to be fun and interesting, offering people helpful tips and information, as well as thoughtful and entertaining content.
