Give your notes a connection to Chattanooga's past with a notebook inspired by Loveman's. Founded in 1875 by brothers David Bernard and Herman Herschel Loveman, the business grew from a dry goods firm into the city's first department store. It survived a destructive fire in 1891 and later expanded into malls across Tennessee and Georgia. The downtown flagship's continued mixed-use life keeps that history visible. A fitting choice for students, writers, and collectors of regional retail stories.
Loveman's was a Chattanooga, Tennessee-based department-store chain serving East Tennessee and North Georgia. In 1875, brothers David Bernard Loveman and Herman Herschel Loveman arrived in Chattanooga from Atlanta and established D. B. Loveman and Bro., a dry goods business. Ismar Noa joined in 1877, when the firm became D. B. Loveman & Company. The partners purchased property at the southeast corner of Eighth and Market Streets in 1884, and construction began there in 1885 on what became Chattanooga's first department store. A fire destroyed the building on December 26, 1891; despite bankruptcy and severe disruption, the business continued and later recovered, employing 300 people by 1917. The chain expanded beyond its downtown flagship to Oak Ridge and Chattanooga-area locations, including East Ridge. It opened at Eastgate Mall in 1965, occupied a former JCPenney location at Highland Plaza in the early 1970s, anchored Walnut Square Mall in Dalton in 1980, and made its final expansion at Hamilton Place Mall in 1987. Burdened by considerable debt, the chain was bought by Proffitt's in 1988; Proffitt's was acquired by Belk in 2005. From 2001, the downtown flagship was converted to mixed use, with condominiums on upper floors. The building continued as mixed-use space in 2025.
