Description
A
photograph
of a
stone
carving
of the
face
of a
woman
over
the
archway
of
one
entrance
to the
5th
Avenue
side
of
Saint
Cloud
Corner
,
500
Church
Street
,
Nashville
,
Tennessee
.
Part
of the
building
occupies
the
former
site
of the
Saint
Cloud
Hotel
, a
prominent
hostelry
in
19th
century
Nashville
,
located
at the
corner
lot
of
Summer
(now
5th
Avenue)
and
Church
Street
. The
adjoining
six-story
structure
,
accessed
through
the
arched
entrance
with the
carving
seen
here, was
built
in
1890
on the
5th
Avenue
side
(211
5th
Avenue
North)
to
serve
as a
store
for
Connell-Hall-McLester
Company
. The
building
later
housed
several
department
stores
,
including
Castner-Knott
,
Cain-Sloan
, and
Harvey's
.
It
was
refurbished
in
1979-1980
to be
used
as
office
,
retail
and
restaurant
space
.
Some
restoration
work
may
have been
done
on the
carving
at that
time
.
Details
in the
image
,
including
the
reflection
in the
window
,
very
closely
resemble
those of
photographs
taken
in
2006
,
suggesting
that the
image
was
created
after
the
1980
restoration
.
