The Estes Kefauver Federal Building & Courthouse Annex is a Federal office building and a courthouse of the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee built in Nashville, Tennessee in 1952.[3] The nine-story annex to the building was completed in 1974.[4]
Named after U.S. Senator Estes Kefauver, the building was designed by the Nashville firm of Marr & Holman in the Modern Style, and construction began in 1948.[4]
Since the completion of the nearby Fred D. Thompson U.S. Courthouse and Federal Building in 2022, the Courts and other Federal Offices have moved to the newer building.[5] The General Services Administration plans to maintain the building and house other federal agencies currently located throughout Nashville.[6]
