Hotel Design
Art in the Heart of MemphisWe are dedicated to carefully cultivating an environment that sparks creativity — utilizing art, music, and service to create something remarkably different. At The Memphian, there is a story behind each and every detail.
Birth of the Square
Overton Square founders, all in their early-to-mid 20s at the time, led efforts to pass a referendum allowing establishments to sell liquor by the drink. As history has it, the approved license was driven from Nashville directly to the front doors of a T.G.I. Friday’s on the Square. This first franchised location outside of New York City was a fast success, and it attracted other businesses to the Midtown neighborhood.
New Beginnings
By the 1980s, Overton Square was a shadow of its former self. Seeking to overcome challenges brought on by closed businesses and absentee owners, developers Robert and Louis Loeb of Loeb Properties, Inc. purchased the square in 2012. Their renovation efforts and public art installation and infrastructural improvements saved the new “Heart of the Arts” district, and soon, new tenants moved in.
A New Icon
The Memphian is committed to building a better Memphis. Situated right on Cooper Street at the cultural center of Overton Square, we are dedicated to continued revitalization efforts and the preservation of Midtown’s character. Regardless of what brings you, we’re eager to offer accommodations and a sense of place that complement our heritage, culture, and own twist on Southern hospitality. A stay at The Memphian makes you a Memphian for life.
The Heart of the Arts
Today, Overton Square is arguably living its best life. It’s a landmark destination dedicated to arts and entertainment, anchored by five live performance theaters and a multi-screen movie house, and it’s awash in colorful murals. An energetic buzz, attractive to visitors and locals, has returned and the neighborhood, embodying the quintessential spirit of the city’s rich past, dynamic present, and promising future.
