The War Memorial Auditorium gets it's name from the history it has erected from. After world war 1 the Tennessee historical society decided to build this monument as a token of respect and honor to those who fought and died for our country. Designer and lead architect Edward Dougherty had a plan to make this building stand out from any other building in Nashville so that it's purpose and intent would not be over looked. It currently stands where the Grand ole' opry used to be which is another reason to make sure this building lived up to it's name.
