Stretching from the Appalachian Mountains to the Mississippi River, Tennessee became the 16th state of the union in 1796. A plethora of history is housed in its 42000 square miles of beautiful landscapes. The Tradesmen Group is fortunate to have been selected by various parks, cities, and government agencies to provide restoration and preservation services throughout the state.
"The historical and cultural foundations of the nation should be preserved as a living part of our community life and development in order to give a sense of orientation to the American people."
-Preamble to the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966
