Old Knoxville Photos

Senator Stacey Campfield posted a bunch of old Knoxville photos on his blog, which I thought might be of interest...

Film of Knoxville in the 1920s. Most of the scenes are shot on UT Campus.

Fascinating! Everything looked so fresh and clean back before The Depression.  Thanks for posting. I think the hill they're riding down in the wagon is the road that comes up to Melrose at the corner of Hess Hall. There are a few of those old houses still there. Can't tell if that particular one is there, but they're all used by UT now for various organizations. And I think I actually know one of the Kuhlman family members... I think he owned the Pizza place on the Strip (Stefano's?!?) about 15-20 years ago.

Very cool to look back in time.
