Constructed by renowned architect Rueben Harrison Hunt in 1906, the 12-story James
Building was Chattanooga’s first skyscraper. Adorned with the elegance of rich-hand-finished
woodwork, beautiful marble and wrought iron, the pristinely restored James Building
enjoys a place on the national register of historical places.
Combining turn-of-the-century splendor with modern amenities, the James Building
stands proudly at Broad and 8th Streets in the heart of Chattanooga’s business district.
The lobby’s distinguished marble floors, majestic skylights, and 100-year-ols oak
doors and trim attract busy professionals who share a unique appreciation for the
dignity of the era.
This landmark property offers a variety of amenities including utilities, security,
nightly janitorial service and on-site maintenance.
Complete with the convenience of an on-site deli and charm of an on-site traditional
men’s clothier, the James Building is also close to many restaurants, banks, governmental
buildings and interstates.
