Memphis, TN, October 22, 2026 —

Baptist Memorial Health Care has filed a demolition permit for the former Hampton Inn at 33 Humphreys Center Drive in East Memphis. The healthcare system said it has no immediate plans for the site beyond demolition.

The permit filing concerns the former hotel building. The information available does not state whether the permit has been approved, when demolition could begin or how long the work might take. A filing alone does not confirm that demolition has started or establish a schedule.

Baptist Memorial has not identified any further plans for the property at this time. The system’s stated position is limited to the planned demolition; no future use for the site was announced.

Additional details about the project were not provided, including the contractor, the scope of the demolition, its cost and the expected completion date. The available information also does not describe any review or inspection related to the permit.

For now, the reported development is the permit filing and the healthcare system’s statement that it has no immediate plans beyond removing the former hotel. Any later decision about the property’s use has not been specified.
