How the historic Sterick Building could be reborn
“This building is architecturally so unique,” Stuart Harris said. “It’s so unlike really any other building Downtown, and people have a true affinity for it.” Harris is with Memphis-based Constellation Properties, the new owners of the 29-story, skyscraper. (Brad Vest/Special to The Daily Memphian)
In the 1920s, the Napoleon Hill mansion was razed to make way for the skyscraper. But the land itself would be passed down through the decades to the descendants of the original family.
