History You Can Touch

In 1974 the wrecking ball was scheduled to take a swing at the historic Bijou Theatre. Fortunately several concerned citizens stepped in to save the day - and the building. These citizens also focused their efforts on the preservation of other historic structures in downtown Knoxville, and eventually became Knox Heritage, Inc.
