The Doctor's Building[2] is a six-story commercial building in Nashville, Tennessee that was constructed in 1916 (some sources{{Which|date=December 2017}} say 1910)[3][4] and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]

The building site was the former location of the home of railroad magnate Colonel Edmund William Cole,[5] with his home being the last 19th-century mansion on Church Street. A new building, known as "The Doctor's Building" was then constructed as a three-story building, with medical offices on the upper floors, and retail shops on the ground floor. A few years later (in either 1916 or 1921), it had three more stories added, increasing its size to {{convert|100000|sqft|m2}}.[6] The design, by architect Edward Emmett Dougherty of the architectural firm "Dougherty and Gardner" was of the elaborate Beaux-Arts or Renaissance Revival style. The exterior is sheathed with glazed polychrome terra cotta.[6][7]

In the 1940s and 1950s, the building consisted of office space for many of the city's doctors and dentists.[8]
