Description
A
postcard
of the
Davidson
County
Court
House
as
it
appeared
in
1910
. The
courthouse
was
designed
in
1857
by
Francis
Strickland
,
son
of
William
Strickland
,
who
built
the
State
Capitol
.
Construction
on the
building
started
in
1859
and
finished
in
1863
. This
Strickland
courthouse
served
as the
epicenter
for a
bustling
Nashville
for
eighty
years
. In
1909-1910
the
Court
House
was
remodeled
and
enlarged
by the
replacement
of its
gable
roof
with a
fourth
story
as
pictured
on this
postcard
. The
building
was
demolished
in
1935
, and in
1937
the

Court
House
was
completed
to
replace
it
.
