The grocery store in the group of buildings shown in K 1870 was likewise designed as an offset to the usual dark and messy crossroads establishment typical of rural areas. While originally established to serve TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority) employees, it is now used by residents of the vicinity in general

Employee housing. One of the house types at the construction village at Wheeler, Alabama. Most early house types of the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority) were more or less in harmony with local traditional building design to minimize avoiding conflict with strongly held prejudices, but improvements in detail and a closer approach to thoroughly modern concepts were sought for and attained on each subsequent project

One of the TVA's (Tennessee Valley Authority) switchyards near Memphis, Tennessee. While such installations tend to be clearcut and orderly in the nature of their layouts, the TVA also puts particular stress on the minor buildings which occur in conjuction with them, as demonstations of architectural design generally applicable to smaller structures

Miscellaneous design. Another school built by the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority), primarily for children of its own employees at Norris, Tennessee, but operated in combination with state authorities and made available to children of county residents. It is used as a model school in the state teachers' training program

Agriculture being still the predominant occupation in the Valley, the TVA's (Tennessee Valley Authority) programs included a demonstration of good agricultural practices. The barn shown here was built in the course of such programs and served the double purpose of demonstration and the provision of pasteurized milk for construction employees
