Built in 1938–1939 in Waverly, Tennessee, the Greyhound Half-Way House at 124 E. Main Street exemplifies Streamline Moderne design by architect William Nowland Van Powell. The building's distinctive blue glazed tile facade reflects its original purpose as a rest stop operated by Greyhound Lines at the approximate midpoint of U.S. Highway 70 between Nashville and Jackson. Opened as a station in 1925 (though the current structure postdates this), it served travelers until 1973. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999 and purchased by the Humphreys County Arts Council in 2024, the building is now being restored for use as art classes, gallery space, and an event venue.
