Knoxville - Knox County

The heart of Knoxville beats loudest downtown. Morning light hits the brick streets around Market Square as cafes open their doors and the smell of biscuits and roasted coffee fills the air. Bakers stack loaves in their windows, and florists roll carts of blooms onto the sidewalks. A few blocks away, breweries and restaurants begin preparing for the lunch rush, and the first guitars tune up in the Old City. By evening, patios glow under string lights, and the hum of conversation drifts down Gay Street. It’s a city built on small moments and people who take pride in what they make and who they serve.
