May celebrates National Preservation Month, and presented its annual Preservation Awards in a ceremony at the Emporium on May 18, 2023. The event acknowledges PEOPLE SAVING PLACES, honoring a wide range of preservationists and projects in our city and around the East Tennessee area. MHM is proud to announce that recently received the Preservation Stewardship Award at this event.

The Preservation Stewardship Award recognizes those who have ensured the ongoing preservation of a historic building through long-term care and continuous ownership for a minimum of ten (10) years.

Home Federal Bank of Tennessee has owned the building at 517 Market Street, which houses administrative offices, since 1960. To provide excellent services to its clients, the building underwent an extensive restoration including updates to the interior and a restoration of the exterior façade. The restoration also included an extensive structural analysis - and new mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems were implemented. MHM is honored to be part of bringing this historic project back to life.
