“We’re proud of our building here in Tennessee. In fact, we used the architectural firm of I. M Paid to carry the same theme, blending into the local landscape while still reaching out to our clients throughout all the branches. We get lots of people coming through just to admire the building once they catch on to where it is exactly.
