Former C&I Bank Building



This wedge-shaped building was completed in 1974 as a C&I Bank.  It was most recently a Bank of America branch.  It closed several years ago and is now being developed as the campus of a specialized music school.  The building features a large atrium facing Madison Avenue.  Once filled with trees, plants, and a fountain -- the atrium is now empty.  This building won many awards in its time and was designed by Memphis architect Francis Gassner.
