| Brief History: | The old gymnasium was one of
the original buildings of the Hall-Moody Institute.
It was constructed in 1925 or 1926 but never completely finished when the building was
purchased by the University of Tennessee in 1927. The building measured 91 feet by 64 feet and
consisted of a regulation basketball court, with a seating capacity of 700, locker rooms and
showers. The building was demolished soon following the completion of the new physical
education building (now the Football Gymnasium) in 1931. |
