It was designed by Memphis architect Hubert T. McGee in Renaissance and/or Italianate style.[1]

It was a main building of the National Teachers' Normal and Business College, which was incorporated in 1907 as a successor of the West Tennessee Christian College, itself the successor of the Henderson Male and Female Institute. A. G. Freed served as president and N. B. Hardeman served as vice-president; the college was renamed for them in 1919 and eventually became the Freed-Hardeman University in 1990.[2] The entire structure (aka, Old Main) underwent a thorough renovation which was completed in 2019.[3]
