Hamilton County is looking at selling a couple of buildings which for many years have made up the Mayfield Annex.
Jim Williamson, a vice president for the nonprofit redevelopment group River City Co., said the buildings are vacant except for one-half of one floor. He said the county wants to find a better use for the structures.
The Chattanooga Chapter of the Fraternal Order of Elks began construction of the building at Seventh and Walnut streets in 1906, which was completed a year later at a cost of $53,000, according to River City.
Members on the 1907 roster included Milton Ochs, Nathan L. Bachman, J.O. Cadek, D.B. Loveman, Z.C. Patten, E.W. Scholtze, Sam R. Reed, C.C. Nottingham and Dr. Manning Ellis.
