The project involves a comprehensive office space renovation, reworking the War Memorial Plaza, upgrading the Motlow Tunnel, and modernising elevators, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems.

The plaza, built in 1975, serves as a key location for public events and accommodates government offices and committee rooms for the Tennessee General Assembly.

In addition to its functional role, the plaza is home to significant monuments, including the Civil War Women’s Memorial and a tribute to Tennesseans who served in the Korean War.

These features reflect the plaza’s dual purpose as both a space for civic activities and a place of historical remembrance.
