OFFICERS Recently I found myself listening to an interesting interview Mary Pom Claiborne, President with Simon Jenkins, a journalist and historian. He was Bill Pittman, 1st Vice President discussing London architecture and the city's lack of Jeff Wilke, 2nd Vice President Adrienne Webster Treasurer uniformity. According to Jenkins, the story of London Melissa Charles, Secretary property development is the story of the free market. Wherever demand went, the market followed. DIRECTORS David Arning Gail Jarvis Jenkins went into great detail about the Abercrombie Report that was produced Cliff Beach Michael Keller in 1943 by the government as a blueprint for the reconstruction of London Amy Fay Chandler Kyle Anne Lang following the Second World War. Named for Sir Leslie Patrick Abercrombie, Michael Combs Rosa Mar a planner, the report basically recommended that London be taken down and Marsha Grieve Jennifer Montgomery rebuilt to better suit automobiles.

In addition, a very special thank you must go to PAT AND HANK HARDCASTLE for their generous gift that restored the Westwood front doors and LOU AND VINCE SENATORE for the antique grandfather clock.

The Airplane Filling Station - 6829 Clinton Highway Knox Heritage also actively preserves by managing preservation easements currently protecting historic structures in Anderson, Jefferson, Knox, Loudon, and Washington Counties. A preservation easement is a voluntary legal agreement that protects a significant historic, archaeological, or cultural resource. An easement provides assurance to the owner of a historic property that its intrinsic values will be preserved through subsequent ownership. Most recently, Knox Heritage worked with the University of Tennessee and the Aslan Foundation on a preservation easement for the Eugenia Williams House. We have also partnered with the Land Trust of Tennessee and the homeowners of Fairview near Jefferson City to protect the residential structures. In addition, our staff assists local developers and property owners with federal rehabilitation Docent Diana Samples discussing Adelia's art. tax credits and national register nominations. 4

How It All Got Started In 1974, the Bijou Theater was threatened by demolition and neglect. The historic venue that had once hosted the Marx Brothers, Dizzy Gillespie and many other entertainers since 1909 had fallen on hard times. The wrecking ball was poised to wipe out an important part of Knoxville history.

But a group of concerned citizens was determined not to let that happen. They formed an organization called Knoxville Heritage, a name later changed to Knox Heritage. Incorporated on April Fools’ Day in 1974 and founded in the Dulin Art Gallery on Kingston Pike, Knox Heritage was thereafter dedicated to protecting and preserving structures and places in Knox County with historic or cultural significance. In the nick of time, the group raised the money to purchase the Bijou Theatre and save it for future generations to enjoy. 7 Patrons Circle
