Applicable Guidelines
Fourth and Gill Design Guidelines, adopted by the Knoxville City Council on April 20, 1999 and June 29, 1999.
    • Demolition creates a permanent change in the historic district, removing part of the neighborhood's historic and architectural significance. Demolition should only be considered when all other opportunities have been discounted.
    • 1. Demolition of any original feature or part of a historic building should be avoided.
    • 2. Demolition of any building which contributes to the historic or architectural significance of the Fourth & Gill neighborhood should not occur unless public health and safety require the removal of the building or structure.
    • 3. Demolition may be considered if the building does not contribute to the historical or architectural character of the district.
