Knoxville: The University of Tennessee and the TVA Headquarters
Knoxville sits on the Tennessee River in Knox County and serves as the principal city of East Tennessee, with a population of roughly 190,000. The University of Tennessee, the state's flagship public institution, dominates the city's western side and fills Neyland Stadium to its capacity of about 100,000 on football Saturdays. Founded in 1794 as Blount College, UT counts more than 35,000 students in Knoxville, with schools of law, medicine, engineering, and agriculture distributed across the main campus and associated facilities.
The Tennessee Valley Authority maintains its corporate headquarters in downtown Knoxville, occupying twin towers on Market Street. Congress created the TVA in 1933 during the New Deal to provide flood control, electricity generation, and economic development across the Tennessee Valley, and the agency still runs the nuclear, coal, hydroelectric, and gas plants that power much of the Southeast. The 1982 World's Fair, officially the Knoxville International Energy Exposition, left the Sunsphere tower standing in World's Fair Park as the city's most recognisable landmark.
Market Square, the pedestrian-centered block off Gay Street, dates to 1854 and now gathers restaurants, shops, and outdoor performances in the city's revitalised downtown. The Women's Basketball Hall of Fame operates a few blocks east, honoring the sport's history with an emphasis on Pat Summitt's long tenure as UT's head coach. The East Tennessee History Center and the Knoxville Museum of Art add further depth to the central cultural district.
