Toyota Center is the gateway to the Memphis Ballpark District, eight city blocks of redevelopment that includes AutoZone Park (the 2000 Minor League Ballpark of the Year), a 400-unit urban multi-family residential development, and a new elementary school. The rebirth of this integral part of downtown Memphis has been recognized with numerous awards, including the prestigious 2002 Urban Land Institute Award for Excellence in the Special Category. The building is home to GTX, Looney Ricks Kiss Architects, and the Memphis Redbirds.
Toyota Center has an exterior of mostly restored original materials, including brick and terra cotta masonry and wood windows. Custom replications were used where necessary. The grand lobby spans the length of the building with south and north double door entrances. The soaring lobby walls are of mahogany trimmed with a stone wainscot of black Impala granite. The flooring is polished black Impala Granite. Three Otis passenger elevators feature polished stainless steel doors and frames, mahogany wood panels and black granite tile flooring.
Hertz Investment Group acquired this prestigious property in 2012. It is currently owned and managed by Hertz Investment Group.
