Nashville is known around the world as Music City. But it’s also known as “The Athens of the South.” That nickname is due in part to Tennessee’s glorious state capitol building, famously created in Greek revival style.

He’s also the author of a terrific book, Tennessee’s Bicentennial Mall, published by Grandin Hood.
