Nashville. 126 2008 During the retreat from Nashville, Colonel Edmund Rucker's brigade attempted to block the Union TRUE pursuit by erecting a barricade of fence rails and logs across Granny White Pike, 1/2 mile south of this spot. During the ensuing night attack by Union cavalry, fierce hand-to-hand fighting took place until the position finally was overrun around midnight, with Rucker wounded and then captured. 183 2018 Originally part of the Woodlawn estate, this property was subdivided in 1916 by Duncan Kenner and the Kenner Manor Land Company. Many houses on Kenner Avenue and Woodmont Circle were built in the 1920s, and in 1929 the Clearview Subdivision was platted on Crescent Road and Clearview Drive.

community. 196 2019 In March 1865, Congress established the Freedman's Savings and Trust Company Bank. A Nashville branch was chartered in Dec. 1865. By 1867, there were 37 branches, mostly in the South. Liberty Hall was built at 44 Cedar Street in 1871 to serve as home to the bank. Despite local successes, federal mismanagement and corruption led to the closure of all branches in 1874. In 1909, another African-American bank, the People's Savings Bank and Trust Co., opened at 410 Cedar Street. 135 2009 The Seeing Eye, the world-famous dog guide training school, was incorporated in Nashville January 29, 1929, with headquarters in the Fourth and First National Bank Building at 315 Union St. Morris Frank, a 20-year-old blind man from Nashville, and his guide dog, Buddy, played a key role in the school's founding and subsequent success. It was Frank who persuaded Dorothy Harrison Eustis to establish a school in the United States. 68 1976 Will Edmondson, born about 1883 of former slave parents in the Hillsboro area of Davidson County, worked as a railroad and hospital laborer until 1931, when he began his primitive limestone carvings.

He died in 1951. 132 2008 Dry-stack stone walls, a Scots-Irish building tradition adapted by slaves in the early 19th century, TRUE were common throughout middle Tennessee. During the 1864 Battle of Nashville, Brigadier General Henry Jackson was captured at this wall on the Middle Franklin Turnpike after the Confederate line collapsed at Shy's Hill. 138 2010 In 1910, H.G. Hill, Sr. purchased this 324 acres including an old-growth forest west of downtown Nashville. He refused to allow the trees to be sold for timber, and fenced the forest to keep his cattle from damaging the centuries-old trees. Hill enjoyed its pristine beauty throughout his lifetime. In 2009, the Friends of Warner Parks purchased the land from the Hill family, ensuring that this ancient forest in an urban setting will continue to be preserved. 200 2019 In 1917, five years after Girl Scouts was founded in Savannah, Ga., the first troops were formed in Nashville.

Nashville. By 1927 there were enough troops and community support to join the national organization as the Nashville Girl Scouts Council. The first headquarters was built in 1964 at 830 Kirkwood Ave. and moved to Granny White Pike in 1991. Now called Girl Scouts of Middle Tenn., they still strive to build girls of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place. 148 2013 Designed by architects Asmus and Clark and opened in 1928 as a junior high school, Cohn School was named in memory of Corinne Lieberman Cohn, one of the first female members of the school board. Jonas H. Sikes served as first principal. The school added high school grades in 1937, and graduated its first high school class in 1940.

Stations founded by others in the surrounding area included: Fort Union, Freelands, Nashborough, Stones River, Mansker, Asher, and Bledsoe. By 1783, only two stations remained, Heaton and Nashborough. The Heaton family moved west in 1786 to New Heaton Station, along the present-day Eaton Creek area of Whites Creek. 186 2019 In 1815, T.M. Burland opened a small brewery 1.5 miles west of Nashville along Cockrill Spring. The brewery used water from the nearby spring and barley purchased from local farmers. J.T. and W.B.

Stained glass artist: Gus Baker. 153 2013 Through the efforts of Mark Sterling Cockrill and Lemuel Davis, a school serving West Nashville children in grades 1-8 opened near here in 1888. High school grades were soon added and the school became West Nashville High School. Following annexation, the school was renamed Cockrill School in 1907. The Public Works Administration constructed the current building at this location, the former Clifton Park. Designed by Marr and Holman, this building opened in 1940. 46 1971 Here was toll-gate No.2 of the Hyde's Ferry Turnpike Co., chartered in 1848 to build a road from Nashville to Ashland City and Sycamore Mills. Richard Hyde's ferry crossed the Cumberland 2.6 mi. southeast, where the railroad bridge is now. Davidson County paid $10,000 for its part of the road in 1901. Cheatham County bought its portion and freed it from tolls in 1916. 136 2009 In 1869, Tom Scott opened a general store 500 yards to the southwest on Old Hyde's Ferry Pike that also served as a post office and public gathering place. Scott's Store became the center of this farming community, which stretches north to Joelton and south to the tip of Bells Bend. The unincorporated crossroads community was called Scott's Store until 1902, when it was renamed Scottsboro. 3 1968 Lardner Clark, 'Merchant and Ordinary Keeper,' came from Philadelphia, Penn. in the early 1780s with ten horses packed with goods to sell. He established Nashville's first drygoods store by 1783, on a site 30 yards east. Clark sold calicoes, unbleached muslin, thimbles, pins, liquors, and

on a site 30 yards east. Clark sold calicoes, unbleached muslin, thimbles, pins, liquors, and provender for horses. Many customers traded pelts and furs for his goods. The building—which served as a store, tavern, and dwelling—faced south and was known as 'the house with the piazza.' 67 1976 About 100 yards east stood Waverly, the home of A.W. Putnam, a writer and historian. The house was named for the Waverley Novels by Sir Walter Scott. Putnam sold Waverly in 1858, and in 1887 the land was conveyed to a real estate syndicate—the Waverly Land Co. The land was subdivided into lots, and became a streetcar suburb serviced by the Waverly Place-Glendale Park line. Several of the streets—Grantland, White, and Ridley—are named for members of the land syndicate. 199 2019 At 8:07 p.m. on Sunday, March 16, 1958 a bomb exploded at the Jewish Community Center at 3500 West End Avenue. The JCC, which was located here from 1952-84, often hosted community meetings aimed at desegregating Nashville's schools and communities based on the Jewish values of equality and justice for all. Rabbi William Silverman received a call from the 'Confederate Underground' claiming responsibility for the bombing. The JCC opened one day later to demonstrate its resilience. 114 2003 European immigrants established Germantown, the first suburb in North Nashville, in the 1850s. Large brick townhouses stood next to modest workers' cottages, illustrating the area's economic and social diversity. World War I and changes in public attitude began decades of decline. Renovation projects at two historic churches began the neighborhood's revitalization in the 1970s. Germantown became a National Register Historic District in 1979. 188 2019 In 1897, Jacob May and his family moved to Nashville and opened the Rock City Hosiery Mill. May obtained a contract to use convict labor for his mill, located inside the state penitentiary on Church Street. In 1908, May incorporated the company under a new name—May Hosiery Mills—and opened a new location next to the Louisville & Nashville railroad terminal on Brown St. in South Nashville. Jacob ran the mill with the help of his sons, Mortimer and Dan, until his death in 1946. In the early 20th century, the mill was among the largest employers in Nashville. It

employed many Jewish refugees the May family helped flee Nazi Germany in the 1930s. For much of the mill's 88 years, its hundreds of employees, mostly women, manufactured a million socks a week. The factory supplied major department stores nationwide and made the socks worn by the NASA Apollo 11 crew. The mill ceased operations in 1985 and has since served as space for artists and businesses. 127 2008 The Una community developed around the crossroads of Smith springs road and Old Murfreesboro Pike in the early 19th century. The local postmaster changed the community name from Rowesdale, or Rosedale, to Una in 1882, honoring a Peabody college student much loved by local residents. Home to schools, churches, a general store, and a service station, this bustling tightly-knit rural community was supplanted by suburban development by the end of the 20th century. 76 1982 President Rutherford B. Hayes laid its cornerstone in 1877. Designed by Treasury Department architect W.A. Potter, it was occupied in 1882 by collectors of customs and internal revenue, U.S. courts, and Nashville's main post office. Addition to rear began in 1903, wings in 1916. Declared surplus in 1976, then given to the City, it was renovated by the development firm that leased it. 171 2018 This stone, Monterey-style house was built in 1925 and purchased in 1952 by 'Mr. Country,' Carl Smith, just weeks before his marriage to June Carter, of the famed Carter Family. The farm remained home to June and daughter Carlene after the couple's 1956 divorce, during which time The Carter Family became a regular Grand Ole Opry act. In 1963, June wrote 'Ring of Fire' here with Merle Kilgore, a certified Gold single recorded soon after by Johnny Cash and The Carter Family. The Carter Family toured with Cash, often appearing on his show. June and Johnny recorded several duets and married in 1968. Family matriarch 'Mother Maybelle' Carter, who developed the transformative 'Carter Scratch' guitar picking style, moved here with husband Ezra in 1971 during his illness. Inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1970, Maybelle was featured on the 1972 Nitty Gritty Dirt Band album Will the Circle Be Unbroken. She stayed here until her death in 1978. 72 1981 Here on west bank of the creek that he discovered in 1772, Kasper Mansker and other first

settlers built a log fort in 1779. John Donelson's family fled here in 1780 for safety from Indians. Mansker abandoned the fort in 1781 and moved to Fort Nashborough. He returned in 1783, built a stronger stockade on east bank of the creek a half mile upstream, and lived there until he died in 1820. 24 1970 Located 250 yds. S.E., this famous pioneer spring served Lockeland mansion on site of present school building. Home built by Col. Robert Weakley in early 1800's and named for his wife, daughter of Gen. Matthew Locke of Salisbury, N.C. Spring water won prize at St. Louis Exposition in 1904, for its 'unique mineral composition and salubrious quality.' 172 2018 In 1943, with a $1000 loan from a friend, Douglas G. Odom, Sr., his wife Louise, and their children—Doug Jr., Richard, Judy, and June—started a four-hog a day sausage business. Before selling the company in 2012, the three generation family-owned business was one of the largest independent sausage manufacturers in America. The iconic farmboy and slogan, 'Take Home a Package of Tennessee Pride,' were regular features on Grand Ole Opry television broadcasts starting in 1956. 173 2018 In Jan. 1918, the area known as Hadley's Bend was purchased by the U.S. government to build a smokeless gunpowder factory to supply the Allied troops during World War I. The contract for the plant—called Old Hickory Works—was awarded to DuPont Co. Over 7 miles of rail were laid to connect the plant to Hermitage Station, bringing in about 31,000 passengers daily. The almost 5,000 acre property started at the Cumberland River and reached to what is now the Hermitage Golf Course. 128 2008 The deadliest train wreck in U.S. history occurred on July 9, 1918, when two crowded trains collided head-on at Dutchman's Curve. The impact caused passenger cars to derail into surrounding cornfields, and fires broke out throughout the wreckage. Over 100 died, including many African-American workers journeying to work at the munitions plant near Old Hickory. 162 2018 In 1968, Hospital Corporation of America (HCA) was founded by Dr. Thomas Frist Sr., his son Dr. Thomas Frist Jr., and businessman Jack C. Massey. The original office was located here, in a small house near HCA's first hospital—Park View. At the time, it was one of the nation's first

In 1873, African American members of the Benevolent Society of Olive Branch No. 38 established Olive Branch Cemetery. Olive Branch Missionary Baptist Church (est. 1875) used the one-room school for services until the church was built. The church was re-built in 1971. Due to its condition, the school was demolished c. 1980. 77 1982 Fall School, built in 1898, is the oldest public school building remaining in Nashville. Named after Mr. P.S. Fall, a prominent Nashville businessman and member of the Board of Education from 1865-1867, it served as an elementary school until 1970. In 1982 it was privately renovated for offices. Unlike the earlier study hall design, Fall School had individual classrooms. 96 1996 Organized in 1829, Christ Church was Nashville's first Episcopal parish. The present Victorian Gothic church, designed by Francis Hatch Kimball of New York, opened for services on Dec. 16, 1894; the tower, by local architect Russell E. Hart., was added in 1947.

187 2019 As early as 1815, school was held nearby at Stoner's Lick Methodist Church. In 1843, early settler Timothy Dodson granted land for a dedicated schoolhouse that was built c. 1855. After it burned, classes were held at the Hermitage railroad station until a one-room frame school was rebuilt in 1880. Old Dodson School was built in 1936, expanded in 1950 and 1955; it was desegregated Jan. 23, 1961. Dodson School, designed by Nashville architect Earl Swensson, opened here in 1968. 136 2009 Bells Bend, first known as White's Bend, is an 18-square-mile area encompassed by a U-shaped bend in the Cumberland River. Numerous archaeological sites indicate that the area has been inhabited for at least 10,000 years. Bells Bend has thrived as an agricultural community since the early 19th century with land owners that included Montgomery Bell and David Lipscomb. The Clees family operated a mill and ferry service beginning in the 1870's. Clees Ferry ceased operation in 1990. 93 1995 Mill Creek Baptist Church, mother church of Southern Baptists in Davidson County, occupied two meeting houses at this site from 1797 until the early 20th century. Here, in 1833, Baptists formed the first Tennessee Baptist Convention. The church's graveyard includes the graves of many early settlers of both African and European descent. 41 1971 On Dec. 13, 1850, the first steam engine, Tennessee No. 1, ordered by the Nashville & Chattanooga Railroad arrived at the wharf on the steamboat Beauty, from Cincinnati. The one mile trip on improvised track from the wharf to the S. Cherry St. crossing required 4 days by mule power. A one mile run was made from this point on Dec. 27, 1850. 180 2018 Rock City was an African American community established c.1881, which was soon followed by the founding of First Baptist Church Rock City. Named for a rock quarry in the area, the approx. boundaries were Cahal Ave. to the south, Branch St. to the east, Litton Ave. to the north and Pennington Ave. to the west. Community children attended Rock City Elementary on Pennington Ave., which closed in 1954. The Men's Civic Club raised funds to provide support for the church and community.

14 1969 On April 24, 1880, Nashville began a month-long celebration of 100 years since the signing of the Cumberland Compact. Starting with a 100-gun salute at the Capitol, a procession of dignitaries, veterans, businesses and community groups paraded to the Centennial Exposition building here. The evening featured speeches, music and a grand display of fireworks. Vendors sold Centennial Medals bearing the likeness of the recently dedicated Capitol statue of Pres. Andrew Jackson. 131 2008 The Mud Tavern Community developed around the crossroads of the Elm Hill and McGavock Turnpikes. The name derives from the mud and log inn at the crossroads where early 19th century travelers found rest and refreshment. Mud Tavern later became a lively rural community, with a railway stop, schools, post office, and general store, which thrived until overtaken by 20th century commercial development. 179 2018 Germantown was home to many 19th-cen. European immigrants who brought their trade skills to Nashville, including brewing. By 1865 Germantown was home to 4 breweries: North Nashville Brewery (C. Kreig); Rock City Brewery (F. Kuhn); Cumberland Brewery (J. Ritter); and City Brewery (F. Leitenberger). By the 1870s all of these breweries had closed due to the success of J. Stiefel's S. Nashville Brewing Co. and shipments from Midwestern breweries via iced rail cars and riverboats. 159 2017 Women from the Methodist Training School founded Warioto Settlement House in 1908. Renamed Centenary Methodist Institute, CMI moved to this location by 1921. CMI worked with rural migrant families in the North Nashville area called Kalb Hollow, providing a health care clinic and instruction in domestic skills and childcare. Children and teens participated in sports and clubs, directed for many years by Tom Page. CMI merged with Bethlehem Centers of Nashville in 1970. 166 2018 Named for the Paradise brothers, early settlers from North Carolina, this ridge was home to the Joelton Air Force Station from 1956-61, when the 799th Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron operated here as a part of the integrated continental defense system against aerial attacks from the Soviet Union. After the station closed, the radar equipment was updated and is still used as part of the FAA Joint Surveillance System. The Paradise Ridge Community Center opened here in

2013. 181 2018 In 1786, the State of North Carolina deeded this land as part of a 640 acre grant to Revolutionary War Private and land surveyor James Mulherin. The c. 1920 stone American Foursquare dwelling was home to Gilbert Stroud Logue and Emma McEwan Logue. Gilbert was a professional Southern Circuit bicycle racer, a Scottish Rite 32nd degree Mason, and an investor in multiple businesses. Emma, a founding member of the Lebanon Road Garden Club, often hosted meetings at this estate. 69 1976 Tennessee Agricultural & Industrial State Normal School for Negroes first opened its doors to 247 students in 1912. this site gave birth to a new era of public higher education for Negroes in the state of Tennessee with emphasis on agricultural & industrial occupations. In 1922 the school became a college & in 1951, a university. 149 2013 This .2-acre lot was purchased by East Nashville citizens and presented to the city on December 12, 1921 as a public park and playground. The undeveloped lot provided views of the adjacent fire hall and was intended to keep firefighters from being disturbed. Nashville's smallest park, Bass Park was named in honor of Fire Captain Herman Bass, the first captain of the fire hall. 27 1970 The portion of East Nashville known as Edgefield, the name suggested by Gov. Neill S. Brown, was incorporated as a city Jan. 2, 1869. Its approximate bounds were Shelby Ave., Sevier St., So. 10th St., Berry St., Cowan Ave. and the River. It's first mayor was W.A. Glenn and its last was S.M. Wene. It was annexed to the City of Nashville Feb. 6, 1880. 113 2003 In 1844, noted educator, evangelist, and agriculturalist Tolbert Fanning started Franklin College, a liberal arts school near this site where boys farmed to cover tuition. In 1855 he co-founded the Gospel Advocate, a religious journal. Fanning's wife, Charlotte Fall, began Fanning Orphan School for girls here in 1884. Their aim was to put education within the 'reach of every youth.' 175 2018 In 1832, the Tenn. legislature approved the state's first asylum, established in 1840 southwest of Nashville. The State bought this land in 1848, after activist-reformer Dorothea Dix and asylum staff called for improved facilities. Prominent architect Adolphus Heiman designed the Gothic-style complex with octagonal towers and separate wards. Opened in 1852 and renamed Central State

A stone gatehouse and unmarked graves are all that remain. 154 2013 Located 1100 Clay Street, North Nashville High School opened in 1940. Designed by Hart and Russell, the building was constructed with funding from the Public Works Administration, and featured carved stone panels by sculptor Puryear Mims. The first class graduated in 1941. Four principals served North High: J.H. Noel, W.J. Mullins, L.L. Carnes, and R.W. Elliot. The final commencement was held June 8, 1978. North High was demolished in 1987. 151 2013 Once a part of the Byrd Douglas plantation, the Nashville Land Improvement Company dedicated ten acres for a public park in 1887. After annexation, the park became a Nashville City Park in 1907, and the City added playground equipment. Richland Park hosted many community events such as ice cream socials, band concerts, outdoor movies, and sporting events. The commmunity center opened in 1932, and was converted in the Richland Park Library in 1961-62. 20 1969 The Union Gospel Tabernacle was built in 1892 after steamboat captain Thomas Ryman heard Rev. Sam P. Jones speak at a tent revival in 1885. Ryman commissioned architect Hugh C. Thompson to build the Gothic Revival church, which quickly became a place for secular and religious gatherings. After Ryman's death in 1904 it was renamed in his honor. Nicknamed the 'Mother Church of Country Music,' the Ryman Auditorium was home to WSM's 'Grand Ole Opry' from 1943-1974. 141 2011 RCA Records established a recording studio in this building in November 1957, with local offices run by guitarist-producer Chet Atkins. Its success led to a larger studio, known as Studio A, built next door in 1964. Studio B recorded numerous hits by Elvis Presley, the Everly Brothers, Roy Orbison, Don Gibson, Charley Pride, Jim Reeves, Dolly Parton, and many others. Along with Bradley Studios, Studio B is known for developing 'The Nashville Sound.' 37 1970 On Dec. 16, 1864, Gen. S.D. Lee's Corps, Army of Tennessee, held this right flank of Hood's TRUE defense line which ran south along the crest of this ridge.

collapse of the Confederate left and center in late afternoon. 54 1975 The city's present waterworks was inaugurated at this site Oct. 1, 1833. The pumping station was erected on the lower river bluff & the reservoir on the upper grounds. German engr., Albert Stein, designed and supervised construction. The system cost $55,000, the first bonded debt of the city. A new plant was in operation & this site was abandoned by Apr. 1891. 213 Founded in South Nashville in 1865, Clark Memorial moved to North Nashville in 1936 and to this location in 1945. The church was central to the Civil Rights movement in Nashville, with activist James M. Lawson conducting classes here in 1959 on non-violent protests. Lawson was a founding member of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), whose Nashville members included students at American Baptist College, Fisk Univ., Tenn. A&I (now Tenn. State) and Vanderbilt Univ. 210 2019 The Reverend Nelson G. Merry, born enslaved in 1824 in Kentucky, was brought to Tennessee by his master. At age 16, his widowed mistress willed him to the First Baptist Church. He was freed in 1845. Merry preached to the 'colored' mission of First Baptist, which was established in 1843. When it became 'First Colored Baptist Church' (now First Baptist Church, Capitol Hill) in 1865, Merry, an ordained minister, was named pastor. The Rev. Merry is buried in Mt. Ararat Cemetery. 7 1968 Nashville's worst disaster by fire occurred Wednesday, March 22, 1916. It began at 11:47 a.m. in the rear of Seagraves Planing Mill, 80 yards west, and was swept eastwardly by 44 to 51 mph gales. It was brought under control at 4:30 p.m. near So. Tenth and Dew Streets. 648 buildings were burned, 1 life lost and 3,000 people left homeless. 92 1994 On this site stood the residence of Captain Thomas Green Ryman, owner of the Ryman steamboat line and builder of the Union Gospel Tabernacle, renamed Ryman Auditorium after his death in 1904. The Queen Anne frame house with a slate roof, seven gables and two turrets, served as the home of Captain and Mrs. Ryman and their seven children from 1885-1926. The house was razed in 1940. 85 1990 Nashville's Jewish community began in the 1840s. Many early families were immigrants fleeing oppression in Germany, Russia, and Poland.

oppression in Germany, Russia, and Poland. Completed in 1876, the Vine Street Temple, with nine Byzantine domes was Nashville's first synagogue, for 80 years a symbol of the city's strong Jewish presence. In 1955, the Reform congregation moved to West Nashville where it and other Jewish congregations continue today. 123 2005 Land once known as Watkins Grove was given to the city in 1870 by brick maker and contractor Samuel Watkins. It served as a site for political gatherings, school commencements and concerts. This became Nashville's first public park in 1901. Park Board chairman E.C. Lewis planned landscape features including a stone entrance and fence, walkways, flowerbeds, and benches, which were built with materials donated by citizens. In 1906, the Centennial Club opened the city's first playground here, setting a precedent for public recreation facilities elsewhere in the city. Improved by the Works Progress Administration in the 1930s, Watkins Park was a park for black Nashvillians from 1936 until the 1960s, when the park system was desegregated. 86 1990 Luke Lea (1879-1945) envisioned this park, gave to the city in 1927 the original 868 acres, and asked that the land be named for his father-in-law, Percy Warner. Founder of The Nashville Tennessean, Lea was a key developer of Belle Meade, a U.S. senator, organizer and colonel of the 114th Field Artillery, WWI. To honor him the Park Board named a high hill and overlook Lea Heights. 145 2012 Established in Kansas City in 1892 by the Methodist Episcopal Church South and moved to Nashville in 1924, Scarritt trained laity in Christian education, music, and missions until it closed in 1988. Much of the Collegiate Gothic campus architecture was designed by Nashville architect Henry C. Hibbs. The campus was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. A leader in racial integration in the South, Scarritt integrated its student population in 1952. The Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke in Wightman Chapel to the Conference on Christian Faith and Human Relations on April 25, 1957. From its beginning, Scarritt had an international student population that reflected its commitment to a global understanding of racial justice and equality. Its mission and vision continue today through the Scarritt-Bennett Center. 33 1970 In 1927 the City bought 131 acres from Warren Sloan and made this the Nashville airport, named

in 1874, school on left in 1879. The present altar, windows, and steeple were added later. The Germantown neighborhood grew around it; sermons were often in German until World War I. The parish has produced many nuns and priests including Archbishop John Floersh and Cardinal Stritch. 99 1996 Soon after the Civil War, freed slave families established farms and dairies in this community named for Lake Providence Missionary Baptist Church. The church was founded in 1868 by Rev. Larry A. Thompson, a traveling missionary. The first church building and school stood nearby. Many roads in this area are named for African-American settlers. 147 2013 Named for local merchant and former school board member Rudolph Fehr, and designed by architects Dougherty and Gardner, Fehr School opened in 1924. On Sept. 9, 1957, Fehr became one of the first schools in Nashville to desegregate, admitting four African American first graders, who attended despite a hostile atmosphere. Some 200 protestors surrounded the school, and it received bomb threats prior to Hattie Cotton School being firebombed shortly after midnight on Sept. 10 98 1996 Andrew Jackson settled in Nashville in 1788 and served as Atty. Gen. until 1796. Lawyer John Overton owned a building here (1791-96) and shared office space with his friend Jackson. Jackson was Tennessee's first Rep. to Congress (1796) and state Superior Court judge (1798- 1804). He led U.S. troops to victory at the 1815 Battle of New Orleans and was elected President in 1828. 61 1975 The Nashville Medical Society, the first medical association in Tennessee, was founded March 5, 1821, by seven physicians in the log courthouse on the Public Square. The first president was Dr. Felix Robertson (1781-1865), son of James and Charlotte Robertson and two-time Nashville mayor. On September 4, 1906, the organization was chartered by the State of Tennessee as the Nashville Academy of Medicine and Davidson County Medical Society. 193 2019 Jefferson Street developed as a vibrant African-American commercial district in the late-19th and early-20th century. As Fisk University, Tenn. A&I (Tenn. State Univ.) and Meharry Medical College grew, more restaurants, shops and music venues opened to cater to nearby residents.

College grew, more restaurants, shops and music venues opened to cater to nearby residents. Built in 1955 during the golden age of Jefferson Street's music scene (1935-65), Club Baron is the only extant nightclub from that time. Owned by local pharmacist Jackson H. Brown, the building also served as a secondary location for Brown's Pharmacy, as well as the only skating rink in town for African Americans. The club is best known as the site of a 1963 guitar duel where Nashville bluesman Johnny Jones bested up-and-comer Jimi Hendrix. Other well-known performers included Fats Domino, Etta James, Little Richard, Otis Redding, Muddy Waters, Jackie Wilson and Ruth McFadden. Now owned by the Elks Lodge, the building was preserved as a local Historic Landmark in 2016. 65 1976 Gen. Thomas Overton served in the Revolutionary War and as Inspector of Revenue in N.C., the same position held by his brother Judge John Overton in Tenn. He was one of Gen. Jackson's seconds in duel with Chas. Dickinson. This grave plot was a part of his homeplace, 'Soldier's Rest,' where he lived from 1804 until his death in 1824. 17 1969 In 1783, Chickasaw chiefs met with white settlers at a spring 100 yards north and agreed on land rights—the Cumberland country for the settlers, the Tennessee River lands beyond the Duck River ridge for the Chickasaw. This tribe became firm friends of James Robertson and his people, but the settlement suffered many more raids by Cherokees and Creeks. 23 1970 The Cumberland Fair and Racing Association sponsored harness racing here 1891-1894. The great match race between Hal Pointer of Tennessee and Direct of California occurred Oct. 21, 1891. Direct won all three heats in record time for a pacing race. Arion, Directum, Kremlin, Robt. J. raced here. Running races 1893-1906 preceded the State Fair 1906. 143 2011 Constructed in 1892 for Hose Company #1, this building is one of the earliest extant fire halls in Nashville. The upstairs housed firefighters while the lower floor stabled the company's two horses. R. C. Burk served as the first Captain. The fire hall was renamed for J.W. Price, a local businessman, c1910. In 1993, the building reopened as a branch of the Nashville Public Library, and is named for State Legislators Charles and Mary Pruitt.

Roy Acuff offered her a job by the age of 16, but she opted to sing with a local group back home in Winchester, Va. She changed her name in 1953 and debuted on the Grand Ole Opry in 1955. She got her big break in 1957 singing 'Walkin' After Midnight' on Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts. In 1973, she became the first female solo artist inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. 169 2018 In 1829, The Rev. Alex Green joined the Methodist Episcopal Church's Nashville Conference. Elected vice-president of the TN Conference's Temperance Society in 1835, Green was instrumental in the Southern Methodist Publishing House's move to Nashville in 1854, and helped establish Shelby Medical College (1857) and Vanderbilt University (1875). By private venture, he opened Union St. from College St. to Market St. c. 1870. This area's first school was renamed Alex Green Academy in 1887. 40 1971 James C.

city architect, James B. Yeaman. Designed to blend in with the surrounding residential neighborhood, it was the first fire hall in the city built specifically for motorized fire trucks. Except for short periods during renovations, this fire hall has been in continuous use since its construction, and was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. 31 1970 E. L. Hampton's pasture became 'Hampton Field' when transient airplanes began landing here during the first World War. About 2,000 feet long from here west, bonded north and south by Golf Club Lane and Woodmont Boulevard, it continued in use as Nashville's first airfield about five years until the opening of Blackwood Field in 1921. 91 1993 Erected in 1890 and named for Ireland's patron saint, this Second Empire style church was built to serve South Nashville's growing Irish Catholic population. Until 1954, the Sisters of Mercy taught a grade school here. Since the 1890s, the Irish Travelers, a unique clan of American nomads, have come here periodically for weddings and funerals. 194 2019 This Italianate-style 1881 factory first housed the Nashville Cotton Mills, which built the middle section c. 1885. It became Phoenix Cotton Mills in 1894. In 1910 Southern Motor Works of Jackson, Tenn. moved in, becoming Marathon Motor Works in 1911. The final portion of the plant and an elegant office and showroom across Clinton St. were built in 1912. Marathon made vehicles in Jackson (1907-1910) and here (1910-1914). It operated as a parts and service business until 1918. In 1906, William H. Collier, engineer at Southern Engine and Boiler Works in Jackson, Tenn. designed the 'Southern' car, renamed 'Marathon' after a 1909 contest. Marathon Motor Works' roadsters, touring cars, coupes, limousines, and trucks were sold worldwide with four-cyl. engines ranging from 20-45 hp. The 'Marathon' was the first car entirely manufactured in the South. In 1986, Barry L. Walker began redeveloping the complex into a creative community called Marathon Village. 195 2019 Founded in 1911 by the Young Men's Christian Association, the Nashville YMCA Night Law School was created to make legal education accessible to working-class people.

for the electric streetcars was February 2, 1941 on Radnor line. Operation of bus system began Aug. 4, 1940 on Hillsboro-Sunset line 134 2008 After the withdrawal from the main Confederate line at Peach Orchard Hill, Lt. Gen. Stephen D. TRUE Lee formed a battle line across Franklin Pike 400 yards east of here with 200 men from the remnants of Brig. Gen. Henry Clayton's division and two cannons from the Eufaula Light Artillery. This last line of defense halted the Federal pursuit for the night as the Confederate army retreated through the hills to the southwest. 177 2018 On Dec. 17, 1891, the Tenn. legislature granted a charter establishing the Old Woman's Home 'for the care and protection of aged and helpless women.'

The West End Home Foundation continues this legacy of enriching the lives of older adults through grantmaking and advocacy. 87 1992 Formerly located at this site was First Baptist Church, Capitol Hill, headquarters of the 1960s Sit- In Movement, led by Rev. Kelly Miller Smith. Strategy sessions, non-violence workshops, mass meetings, victory celebrations, and administrative offices were here. The well-disciplined Nashville Sit-Ins served as a model for civil rights demonstrations throughout the South. 109 2001 Ward's Seminary for Young Ladies, founded in 1865 by Dr. William E. Ward, stood at this site many years. Dr. Ward, a graduate of Cumberland University in Lebanon in both law and divinity, died in 1887. The school was sold, but continued to operate as Ward's Seminary until 1913 when it merged with Belmont College to form Ward-Belmont, a high school and junior college for women. Ward's was regarded as one of the leading schools for young women in the South. 13 1969 After Col. John Donelson was killed in 1785, his widow and family continued to live here in a log house. In 1789 lawyers Andrew Jackson and John Overton boarded with the Donelsons. Here Jackson met Rachel, the Donelson's youngest daughter.

State Penitentiary, designed by Chattanooga architect S.M. Patton, was built from 1893-97 and had 50 buildings. It closed in 1992. Ford Glass Plant opened in 1956 as one of the world's largest automobile glass manufacturers. 170 2018 This house, built from Sewanee stone, was the home of Cora Howe, who created a bucolic, English-style garden here in the early 1920s. Known as 'Wildings,' her garden contained over 300 plant types, many of them native species, and a rare, thatched-roof tool house. Mrs. Howe was wholly dedicated to the unique garden estate, and opened it to the community for nearly 40 years. After her death in 1968, the gardens were transplanted to Cheekwood. 170 2018 The Eastwood area, a suburb originally named Eastland in 1901, was laid out as the Brownsville plan in 1855, the land carved from the Weakley tract. Their c.1855 house remains at the northeast corner of Chapel and Greenwood. Eastland Avenue, previously Vaughn's Pike, was named for and led to a 19th century farm near the river.

The Fuller home was destroyed in the East Nashville Fire of 1916. 142 2011 When Adelicia Acklen's estate was sold in 1890, the Belmont Mansion and its grounds became Belmont College. Other portions, and parts of the neighboring Sunnyside Mansion property, were subdivided into residential lots by the Belmont Land Co. In 1900-1910, streetcar lines were built running to Cedar Lane on Belmont Boulevard and to Blair Boulevard on 21st Ave. The neighborhood became a National Register Historic District in 1980. 82 1982 Built 1898, the Mary Lee Academy, the second school in the Oglesby Community, was named for its first teacher, Miss Mary Lee Clark. The county bought the school in 1906. The name changed to Ogilvie in honor of the land donor, Benton H. Ogilvie, and later became Oglesby. In 1943, the schoolhouse was given back to the Oglesby Community. 47 1971 The name Saint Cecilia, patroness of music was chosen for a grammar and high school for girls, opened in October 1860 by four sisters who had moved to this site from Saint Mary's convent, Third Order of Saint Dominic, Somerset, Ohio on August 17, 1860.

War as 'missions' or Sunday School classes of earlier white churches. All boasted memberships of over 1,000 by 1910 and claimed the city's most prominent Black business and professional families. All but one moved in the 1950s, and all continue to serve the Nashville community. 156 2016 The heart of Nashville's music business, Music Row began in 1955, when Owen Bradley opened the Quonset Hut, the first recording studio here. In 1957, Chet Atkins opened RCA's studio at the corner of 17th and Hawkins. Other studios, publishing houses, and record labels including Columbia, Epic, Decca, Warner Bros, Capitol, and Curb followed with offices here. Street names were changed in 1975 to Music Square East and West. Donated by Mike Curb Family Foundation 165 2018 Located near Mill Creek, Locust Hill is one of the earliest brick homes in Middle Tennessee. Built c. 1805, it was home to the Charles Hays family until after the Civil War. The Federal-style house features intricately carved mantles and millwork, and impressive faux-wood graining techniques. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. 75 1981 Music publishing in Nashville began in 1824 when 'The Western Harmony' was published by Allen D. Carden and Samuel J. Rogers. A book of hymns and instruction for singing, it was printed by Carey A. Harris on the press of his newspaper, the Nashville Republican, on College Street (now Third Avenue) in this vicinity. 215 In 1888, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers sought to make water travel on the Cumberland River easier by regulating water levels with a series of dams and locks. Construction on Lock 2 began in 1892, and the lock and dam were finished in 1907. The project ended in 1924 with only 15 of the planned 26 locks completed. Leased to Metro Parks since 1956, Lock 2 Park still contains the lock keeper's house, several outbuildings, a lock wall, and a river gauge on the concrete steps. 55 1975 The guns of Fort Negley, commanding three turnpikes to the South & Southeast, opened the TRUE Battle of Nashville, Dec. 15, 1864. This site was selected by Capt. J.S. Morton as the key strongpoint in the Federal line around the city. The European style fort named for General James S. Negley, was built of stone, logs, earth and railway iron.

205 2019 The Crieve Hall neighborhood was part of the over 2,000-acre estate of John Overton, on which he built Travellers Rest in 1799. Jesse M. Overton built an English Tudor-style house called Overton Hall near here in 1900. Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Farrell purchased the estate in 1925, expanded the home and extensive gardens, and renamed it Crieve Hall after the ancestral Farrell home in Northern Ireland. The house was razed in the 1950s, and Crieve Hall Elementary School opened in 1955. 137 2009 This Federal-style home was built c1810 for John Brown Craighead and his first wife Jane Erwin Dickinson. Craighead was the son of early Nashville settler the Rev. Thomas Craighead. In 1823, Craighead married Lavinia Robertson Beck, youngest daughter of Nashville founders Charlotte and James Robertson. Major additions to the house were made in 1824, 1919, and 1998.

Eakin in 1882. Active in many civic causes, in 1917 she became the first woman to join the Nashville City School Board. After her death in 1936, a new school on Fairfax Ave., built with funds from the Works Progress Administration (WPA), was named in her honor. In 2006, Eakin School moved to the adjacent Cavert School. The Eakin Building became the Martin Center for teacher training. 174 2018 In 1882, T.S. and T.C. Joy, founders of Joy & Son floral co. (est. 1877), bought 91 acres east of Lischey Ave. for their greenhouse operations, including the Gen. White home and White-Ogden Cemetery. The Joys built a large greenhouse (1886) and two brick dwellings along Lischey c. 1890. One of the South's largest florists, Joy Floral Co. opened retail shops and wholesale depts. in Chattanooga (1915) and Atlanta (1920). By 1938, the company had nearly all female leadership. 148 2013 A graduate of Peabody College, William Rayburn Rochelle served as principal of Cohn High School from 1939 until his retirement in 1965.

She attended Meharry Medical College and studied under Dr. Matthew Walker, Sr., who admitted her as the first black woman to the surgery program. She was the first female African-American surgeon in the South, and the first to be made a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. She was chief of surgery at Riverside Hospital from 1957-1983. In 1966, she became the first African-American woman to serve in the Tenn. Gen. Assembly. 2 1968 On Christmas Day 1779, John Rains led his family and livestock across the frozen Cumberland and settled in this vicinity. In 1784 he built a fort that enclosed this hill and the spring 75 yards east. At james Robertson's orders he often led a company of scouts against Indians. Rains made his home here until his death in 1834. 36 1970 The city's first fire-fighting force of volunteers was formed in May 1807. The first paid Dept. was organized on July 29, 1860, with J.S. Dashiell as chief. Three horse-drawn steam engines were bought. A telegraph alarm was installed in 1875. Chief A.A. Rozetta used the first auto Nov. 21, 1910. First gasoline driven engines were used Sept. 1912. 112 2003 The Tanglewood Historic District is a rustic style suburban development from the 1920-1940s built by Robert M. Condra, a prominent Nashville builder. Natural materials are featured in this popular Arts and Crafts substyle that harmonizes with the landscape. Tanglewood is located at the site of a late 1700s settlement known as Haysborough. 59 1975 On Dec. 16, 1864, the Federal 16th Corps under Gen. A.J. Smith joined the 23rd Corps under TRUE Gen. John M. Schofield approx. 1000 ft. north of here. From that line at about 4:00 p.m. the 1st Brigade of Gen. John McArthur's 1st Division launched the assault that broke the Confederate line at the salient on Shy's Hill to the southeast which resulted in the rout of Hood's Army. 9 1968 This building, renowned for its pure Gothic architecture and harmony of proportions, was designed by Wills & Dudley, of New York, in a style suggesting an English village church.

was laid May 7, 1852, by Bishop James Otey. The church was used as a powder magazine by the Union Army for several months during the Civil War. 146 2012 Nashville native Mary Catherine Strobel was the first female employee of the Nashville Fire Department, serving from 1948 to 1977. She also devoted her life to helping the poor. She lived in the family home, 1212 7th Avenue North, from 1938 to 1971. Mary Catherine was murdered in Nashville on Dec. 9, 1986 in a random act of violence. In 1987, the community established the Mary Catherine Strobel Volunteer Awards to foster her giving spirit and her legacy of community service. 43 1971 To prepare young men for College & for life, believing the first object of education to develop character, the second to develop intellect, third to make Christian gentlemen, Wallace University School, directed by Professor Clarence B Wallace, flourished on this site, 1914-1941. Graduates entered universities without taking the usual examinations. 50 1971 This 51 Mil. Gal. Reservoir was built 1887-89 on Kirkpatrick Hill, the site of Federal Fort Casino during Civil War. It is elliptical in shape with axes of 603 & 463.4 Ft. Perimeter of wall is 1,746 Ft. & water depth is 31 Ft. Rupture in east wall occurred at 12:10 A.M., Nov. 5, 1912. The interior was waterproofed in 1921.

158 2017 On Feb. 25, 1862, Nashville became the first Confederate state capital to fall to Federal forces. TRUE Two days prior, the 4th Ohio Vol. Cavalry arrived from Bowling Green, KY and set up pickets along the east bank of the river. Gen. D.C. Buell arrived by rail with about 9,000 men, and on Feb. 25, Gen. William Nelson and a flotilla carrying around 7,000 men arrived from the recent surrender at Fort Donelson. That afternoon, Mayor R.B. Cheatham surrendered the city to Gen. Buell. 160 2017 The Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church was established on Nov. 4, 1917, at 208 6th Ave S., the former site of Wallace Univ. School. Greek immigrants began moving to Nashville in the 1880s in search of better economic opportunities. In 1905 a benevolent society was established—the Greek-American Mutual Help Association—which served as a religious and cultural center and raised funds for the purchase of the 6th Ave. property. In 1986, the church moved to 4905 Franklin Pike. 38 1971 Tennessee novelist, poet, co-author, four-volume history, 'Tennessee, the Volunteer State'; publisher, 'Trotwood Monthly'; author of short stories; breeder & judge of livestock; teacher, lecturer; beloved companion & raconteur; President, Tennessee Historical Society; State Librarian & Archivist, 1919-1929; lived in his home Arden Place on this site. 89 1992 Trenches about 20ft. N of this point, held by Loring's Division, were the center of the Confederate TRUE main line before the Battle of Nashville. On Dec. 15, 1864, Redoubt No.1, a key artillery salient 200 yds. NW, fired on Federal forces until overrun by General Wood's troops late in the day, when Confederates retreated toward Granny White Pike. 49 1971 Located 125 yards north is the site of Idlewild, home of Neill S. Brown, native of Giles County & fourteenth governor of Tennessee, 1848-1850. The only governor to live in East Nashville, he is credited with naming the city of Edgefield. Appointed United States Minister to Russia in 1850, and in 1870 was a member of the State Constitutional Convention. 45 1971 The original log part of this house was built about 1818 by Abram DeMoss and named Belle Vue for the house his father, Lewis DeMoss, built in 1797 overlooking the Harpeth River a mile southwest. In time the name was given to the Nashville & Northwestern Railroad depot and to the U.S. Post Office. Thus the Bellevue community owes its name to this historic site.

U.S. Post Office. Thus the Bellevue community owes its name to this historic site. 84 1990 Erected by the Louisville & Nashville Terminal Co. & dedicated Oct. 9, 1900, the Romanesque style building of Bowling Green Gray stone and Tennessee marble was designed by L & N Chief Eng. Richard Montfort. The past grandeur of the structure is still evident in the ornate fresco figures, stained glass windows & elaborate wrought iron decoration. 211 In 1951, Lon and Annie Loveless began serving fried chicken, biscuits and jams at picnic tables to hungry travelers from Highway 100, then the main road between Nashville and Memphis. They soon converted their 4-room home into a restaurant, added the 14-room Loveless Motel, a smokehouse and the iconic neon sign. Known for scratch-made Southern meals using recipes passed down by Lon and Annie, The Loveless Cafe remains a staple that welcomes over half a million guests each year. 176 2018 Built in 1903 by Judge J.D.B. and Sarah DeBow, the two-story stone house called Ravenwood was razed and rebuilt in 1947 by businessman R.D. Stanford, Jr. The 272-acre estate included terraced gardens, stone walls and a man-made lake. In 1957, Stanford sold the land to the Donelson Improvement Co. to become the private Ravenwood Club. A swimming pool, tennis courts, equestrian trails and 18-hole golf course were added. Metro Parks and Recreation purchased the property in 2012. 207 2019 Nashville barber Alfred Z. Kelley was lead plaintiff in Kelley v. Board of Education, a federal lawsuit filed Sept. 23, 1955, on behalf of his son Robert and 20 other African American children. In December, the suit was amended to include two white children turned away from city schools. They lived in majority African American neighborhoods. Kelley sought compliance with the U.S. Supreme Court's 1954 Brown ruling. Tenn.'s longest desegregation case, it was settled in April 1998. 130 2008 James Buchanan (1763-1841) built this two-story single pen log house with hall and parlor plan c1807. The single pen log addition was added c1820 to accommodate the Buchanan family's sixteen children. The house displays a high level of craftsmanship and is one of the best examples of two-story log construction in Middle Tennessee. The house was restored and placed in the

of two-story log construction in Middle Tennessee. The house was restored and placed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. 197 2019 Belle Vue was the name Abraham Louis DeMoss gave the land he bought overlooking the Harpeth River in 1800. His gristmill and sawmill stood nearby. When the Nashville-Northwestern Railroad cut its line to Kingston Springs in 1855, Bellevue became the hub of this area with a railroad depot, blacksmith shop and livery stable. In 1866 T.L. Herrin opened a general store and post office to the north. A two-story frame pre-railroad storage building now houses Bellevue Lodge No. 716. 203 2019 Reverend William L. 'Bill' Barnes, a pastor, civil rights leader and teacher, was often called the 'conscience of Nashville.' Rev. Barnes passionately agitated for legislation that would help those marginalized by race, social class, sexual orientation, incarceration or homelessness. He also founded many organizations to bring attention to those issues including MANNA (1975), Project Return (1979) and the Organized Neighbors of Edgehill (O.N.E.) Barnes Scholarship (1995). In 1966 Rev. Barnes founded Edgehill United Methodist Church, one of Nashville's first intentionally integrated churches. His work, addressing issues like affordable housing, often centered in the Edgehill community. Barnes wanted his work to be carried into the future, believing, much like Saint Óscar Romero, that 'The temple shall remain unfinished until all are housed in dignity.' In 2013 The Barnes Housing Trust, the city's affordable housing fund, was named in his honor. 122 2005 Regarded as the symbol of dance in her adopted hometown of Nashville, Ellen Albertine Chaiser Maxwell (1902-96) operated the Albertine School of the Dance (1936-80). She had danced with Chicago Opera, Adolf Baum Dance Co., and Ruth St. Denis Dance Co. Founder and director of the Les Ballets Intimes with Nashville Ballet Society (1945-80), Maxwell was also a founding member of the Southeastern Regional Ballet Assn. (1955). Her studio in her home, 3325 West End, no longer stands. 58 1975 Formerly established in 1867 with a bequest of $20,000 by ironmaster Montgomery Bell, the roots of M.B.A. actually go back to 1785, with the University of Nashville, Cumberland College, and Davidson Academy. The boy's preparatory school has been here since 1915, when the Board of

Trustees purchased Totomoi, the estate of Garland Tinsley. 214 In 1906, Norwegian-born Andres Ivarson Myhr and wife Minnie Bolton Myhr acquired land from Tabitha DeMoss and built 'Maple Row,' named for trees planted along the driveway. Part of Myhr Farm, this was the first house in Bellevue to have indoor running water, electricity and central air. Dr. Myhr was State Evangelist and Secretary of the Tenn. Missionary Society for 20 years. He served as pastor of Bellevue Christian Church (1883 to 1933), that met here after the church burned. 139 2016 The Nashville Brewery was founded by Jacob Stiefel on this location in 1859. After the Civil War, the brewery had various owners until it was rebuilt by Christian Moerlein and William Gerst in 1890. Renamed the William Gerst Brewing Co in 1893, it brewed until the start of Prohibition. William Gerst died in 1933, the year Prohibition ended, but his four sons resumed operation using the popular 'Brewed in Dixie' slogan. The brewery closed in 1954 due to national competition. 28 1970 Lucinda 'Granny' White of N.C. acquired 50 acres of land near Brown's Creek on Jan. 2, 1803. In 1812, she opened a log tavern about 200 feet north of here near an old spring. Famous for its food and hospitality, Granny White's inn stood along a stagecoach road that connected to the Natchez Trace. She was buried here on her land in 1816. Granny White Pike was named after her in 1855. The D.A.R. Gen. James Robertson Chapter restored her grave and added iron fencing in 1932. 120 2005 Distinguished poet, critic, novelist, and teacher.

Nolensville Road. In 1919 the L&N RR began operation of Radnor Yards. 161 2017 An activist for LGBT rights and advocate for people with mental health and housing issues, Campbell co-organized Tennessee's delegation to the 1987 March on Washington for Lesbian & Gay Rights and Nashville's 1988 Pride parade at a time when many feared discrimination and violence. Daughter of civil rights activist Will Campbell, she was the lead plaintiff in Campbell v. Sundquist (1996), which overturned a law criminalizing private, consensual, sexual acts between same-sex adults. 107 2001 In 1867, Jane Watson deeded land to several African-American families, many of them her former slaves. First called Watson Town, the community became known as Mt. Pisgah by 1871. The Methodist Episcopal Church North organized a church here in 1866 and bought an acre of land from William Holt in 1869 for a church and school building. The second church building, used 1916-1976, stood along the Owen & Winstead Pike, now Edmondson Pike. 51 1975 Located immediately south, this fashionable place of entertainment was established by Messrs. Decker & Dyer in 1827 and operated for more than a decade. It covered several acres & included a ballroom, dining hall and miniature railroad. Pres. Jackson was honored here on several occasions. John Bell made his famous 'Vauxhall Garden Speech' here May 23, 1835. 208 2019 Antioch High School opened here in the fall of 1933, after community members from Antioch, Cane Ridge and Mims (Bakertown) signed petitions to the Board of Education urging them to choose Antioch, not Una, as the school location. Previously the school had been on Antioch Pike near Mill Creek. A wing for the elementary school was added in 1951, with another wing added in 1958. This building became Antioch Middle in 1997, when the high school moved to a new location on Hobson Pike. 95 1995 Lt. Alexander Ewing was commissioned in the Continental Army in Sept. 1777 and promoted to Capt. in 1781. That year, while serving as aide-de-camp to Maj. Gen. Greene, he was wounded at Guilford Courthouse. Ewing moved to Davidson Co. c. 1786 and married Sarah Smith c. 1788. Initially granted 2,666 acres, by 1798 Ewing had increased his land holdings across Middle Tenn. and owned 13 enslaved persons. This early Federal-style house was completed just before his

and owned 13 enslaved persons. This early Federal-style house was completed just before his death in 1822. 52 1975 Chief Engr. Army of Tenn. C. S. A.; Construction Engineer on first R.R. Bridge in Nashville; City Engineer of Nashville and member of American Society of Civil Engineers; Director of Works at the Tennessee Centennial Exposition & Co-Founder of Foster & Creighton Co.; Elder, First Presbyterian Church; 33rd Degree Scottish Rite Mason. 32 1970 In 1921 the State rented land west of Shute Lane and erected two hangars here for the 105th Observation Squadron, Tennessee National Guard. The airfield of about 100 acres was named for H. O. Blackwood, who gave $1,000 to aid the project. The first airmail flight from Nashville was from here to Chicago July 29, 1924. Airplanes used the field until 1928. 104 1999 Created in 1937 from the G. A. Puryear farm. It was once part of Samuel Watkin's country estate. Olmsted Bros. Landscape Architects designed the roads and lots to flow naturally with the hills, valleys, and brook. Residential development was made possible by the 1915 construction of a concrete road. Known by 1918 as Woodmont Boulevard, it was the first documented concrete road in Tennessee. 117 2003 One of Nashville's best examples of Colonial Revival style, this building was designed by Donald Southgate and opened in 1937. Public Works Administration funds supported its construction during a major city school building project of the 1930s. Principals William H. Yarbrough (1937-54) and John A. Oliver (1955-68) built a reputation for academic and athletic excellence. It became a middle school in 1968. 21 1970 Here, near the center of a 64-acre woodland park owned by the Nashville Railway & Light Co., the Glendale streetcar line turned back toward town. The park opened in 1888 to attract passengers for the railway—originally steam, electric after 1893. A zoo was added in 1912. The park closed in 1932, a casualty of automobiles and the Depression. 78 1982 Percy Warner (1861-1927) was a pioneer in electric utilities and hydroelectric development in the South. As chairman of the Park Board, he expanded Nashville's park system. Preservation of this natural area was one of his greatest civic projects. Named in his honor by the Park Board in 1927,

natural area was one of his greatest civic projects. Named in his honor by the Park Board in 1927, this land constitutes the largest municipal park in Tennessee. 39 1971 The Nashville Gas Light Co., founded Mar. 1850, with General Washington Barrow, President, built first gas works in Tennessee for manufacturing gas from coal. First street lamp was lighted Feb. 13, 1851 at Second Ave. North and Public Square. First gas stove was used in 1894. Natural gas piped from Texas was first used in Nashville on August 5, 1946. 80 1982 Edwin Warner (1870-1945) succeeded his brother Percy on the Park Board in 1927 and served for eighteen years. He personally directed the acquisition of most of the Warner Park acreage and supervised WPA development of the property. Warner organized a major Victory Garden program in the park during WWII. Park land west of Old Hickory Blvd. was renamed in his honor in 1937. 184 2018 Warren Jett opened The Jungle, a restaurant and cocktail bar, at 715 Commerce Street in 1952. Next door, Juanita Brazier opened Juanita's Place, a beer bar, in 1956. By the early 1960s, both were known as the first gay bars in Nashville. Jett sold The Jungle in 1960, after his brother, Leslie E. Jett, was elected sheriff. In 1963, 27 men were arrested for 'disorderly behavior' in a raid at Juanita's. Gay men continued to gather at both bars until 1983, when the block was leveled. 198 2019 In 1910, Horace Greeley Hill, Sr. and wife Mamie began buying land around their West Nashville home Cliff Lawn. After Hill Sr., an entrepreneur and philanthropist, died in 1942, H.G. Hill, Jr. took over the family business and began developing that land into the Hillwood Estates subdivision. The neighborhood included an elementary and high school, both named for Hill, as well as the Hillwood Country Club and Hillwood Presbyterian Church, for which Hill Jr. donated land. 48 1971 Opened on this site February 1890, with a capacity of 60 beds. Doctor Charles Brower of the University of Nashville Medical Department was appointed Superintendent. In 1891 a school of nursing was opened with Miss Charlotte E. Perkins as Superintendent. This was the first training school for nurses between the Ohio River and New Orleans. 106 1999 Sam Houston, a native of Virginia, moved to Nashville in 1818 to study law with Judge James Trimble. Admitted to the bar later that year, Houston practiced in Lebanon, Tenn., before returning to Nashville to serve as District Attorney (1819-21). In 1821, he opened a law office near this site.

to Nashville to serve as District Attorney (1819-21). In 1821, he opened a law office near this site. He was elected a U.S. Congressman (1823-27), Governor of Tenn. (1827-29), and President of the Republic of Texas (1836-38). 8 1968 The Nashville Race Course, the 'Burns Island Track,' 1828-1884, was .6 of a mile north. Here Oct. 10, 1843, was run the then richest race in the world, the $35,000 Peyton Stakes, 4 mile heats, promoted by Bailie Peyton. The winner owned by Thomas Kirkman, was renamed 'Peytona.' Ten Broeck and Thora also raced here. 196 2019 The Duncan Hotel opened on this site in 1889. The Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America union formed here in 1914, before the hotel closed in 1916. R.H. Boyd, Preston Taylor and others purchased the building and opened the first Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) for Black men. Located in the heart of the African-American business district, it shared the space with Citizens Savings Bank and Trust (formerly One Cent Savings Bank) and other African-American businesses. 129 2008 In 1927 8.25 acres of the Belle Meade Plantation were acquired from its owner Walter O. Parmer to use for a new school. Parmer School opened that fall as a one-room school with grades 1-3. In 1928 the school was transformed into a modern brick building with 4 classrooms adding grades 4- 8. By 1951 there were 18 classrooms. The school closed in 1982 and burned in 1985. The stone and brick archway was left as a reminder of the school's history. The property became a public park in 1986. 189 2019 Matthew Walker was born December 7, 1906 in Waterproof, La. After attending school in New Orleans, he graduated from Meharry Medical College in 1934 and began teaching at Hubbard Hospital. Walker served as Chairman of the Department of Surgery from 1945-73 and was instrumental in securing a 1968 federal grant to start the Meharry Neighborhood Health Center. In 1970 the community-based clinic's name was changed to the Matthew Walker Comprehensive Health Center in his honor. 202 2019 Koinonia (Greek for 'fellowship') Coffeehouse opened in 1973 with artists such as Dogwood, Fireworks and Brown Bannister boldly sharing their faith through contemporary music.

Fireworks and Brown Bannister boldly sharing their faith through contemporary music. It became a destination for 'Jesus Music' artists nationwide as young talent such as Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith shared their first songs. The neighboring Belmont Church helped with overflow crowds, co- hosting early CCM recording artists such as Honeytree, Randy Matthews, Don Francisco and more. 144 2012 BMI (Broadcast Music, Inc.), an organization that collects performance royalties for songwriters and music publishers in all genres of music, opened its doors in New York in 1940. BMI was the first performance rights organization to represent what was then commonly referred to as rural and race music in the forms of country, gospel, blues, and jazz. In 1958, BMI established a permanent Nashville office and hired Frances Williams Preston as manager. BMI constructed the first wing of this building in 1964 and expanded it in 1995. This office represents songwriters and music publishers in Memphis, Atlanta, New Orleans, Muscle Shoals and Austin, and played a key role in developing Nashville as Music City, U.S.A. 94 1995 On August 18, 1920, Tennessee became the 36th state to ratify the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, thereby giving all American women the right to vote. After weeks of intense lobbying by national leaders, Tennessee passed the measure by one vote. The headquarters for both suffragists, wearing yellow roses, and anti-suffragists, wearing red roses, were in the Hermitage Hotel. 60 1975 On May 18, 1875, members of several Nashville churches gathered at the Christian Church (138 Vine Street) after a religious revival meeting and organized the Nashville Young Men's Christian Association. Its first building, erected in 1886 on Church Street between Cherry and College, was destroyed by a fire in 1894. In 1912, it moved to its new eight-story building on Seventh and Union, which it occupied until 1972 when it moved to its present building, 1000 Church Street. 12 1969 Nashville's first public school, Hume School, opened here Feb. 26, 1855. A three story brick building, the school employed 12 teachers and served all grades. In 1874 high school classes were moved to Fogg School built on adjoining corner lot. Named for educators, Alfred E. Hume & Francis B. Fogg, the schools were replaced by Hume-Fogg in 1912.

5 1968 On this hill was fought the decisive encounter of the Battle of Nashville December 16, 1864. At TRUE 4:15 p.m. a Federal assault at the angle on top of the hill broke the Confederate line. Col. W. M. Shy, 20th Tenn. Inf. was killed and Gen. T. B. Smith was captured. The Confederates retreated over the Overton Hills to the Franklin Pike. 97 1996 Two blocks west, on the hill, stood Radnor, a college for young women. Founded by A.N. Eshman in 1906, it gained national attention for its complimentary educational tours for students. After the school closed in 1914, a printing plant on campus served until 1924 as the Cumberland Presbyterian Publishing House. In 1921, a spectacular fire claimed the college's main building. 74 1981 Samuel Stritch, born Aug. 17, 1887, southwest corner Fifth and Madison, entered Assumption School at age 7. Ordained when 22, he sang his first Mass here, was priest in Memphis and Nashville, Bishop of Toledo, Archbishop of Milwaukee, Archbishop of Chicago. Named Cardinal in 1946, he was called to Rome in 1958 to head Catholic missions, thus became first American member of the Roman Curia. 119 2004 The Temple Cemetery was established in 1851 with the purchase of three acres by the Hebrew Benevolent Burial Association and still serves Nashville's first Jewish congregation, The Temple, Congregation Ohabai Sholom. It blends early urban burial ground practices with picturesque elements of later Victorian garden cemeteries. The Temple Cemetery was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. 133 2008 This early planned subdivision presents a largely unaltered picture of suburban residences in early 20th century Nashville. With ninety percent of existing homes built between 1905 and 1925, the styles range from large American foursquares to the more modest bungalows and cottages. The neighborhood is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. 30 1970 Site of the $87,000,000 Old Hickory Powder Plant built and operated in 1918 by the E.I. DuPont deNemours Co., for the United States Government, to make smokeless gunpowder for the Allied Armies in World War I. By the time of the Armistice Nov. 11, 1918, the plant, 75% complete, was producing 750,000 lbs of powder every 24 hours.

118 2004 Home of Mary Benton, widow of Jesse Benton who left Nashville after a famous feud with Andrew Jackson in 1813. The Greek Revival house was built c.1852 and stood between Union and Confederate lines during the Battle of Nashville in 1864. Prominent dentist L.G. Noel lived here for 45 years. The brick wings were added by Col. Granville Sevier during renovation of the house in the late 1920s. 101 1997 June 1922, Boy Scout John H. DeWitt, Jr., started Nashville's first radio station (WDAA) on the Ward-Belmont Campus. Assisted by music teacher G.S. deLuca, he broadcast Enrico Caruso records to the opening of the River and Rail Terminal on the river at Broad Street. DeWitt was WSM radio station's chief engineer, 1932-1942, and president, 1947-1968. 116 2003 George Tolbert, a farmer, bought 97½ acres here in 1879 that became known as Tolbert Hollow. He was a former slave who, according to family tradition, purchased his own freedom. Tolbert worked 45 acres by 1880 and cut and sold wood with his sons. Land ownership signified true freedom for blacks after the Civil War. Generations of Tolbert's descendants continued to live on his land. 163 2018 Built in the 1830s, rebuilt in 1859, and expanded in 1880, Perry Dale Sr. and Alberta G. Dale purchased this two-story frame house in 1946, naming it GranDale. The one-story wings were added to each side in the 1970s. Between 1972 and 1973, Perry Sr. sold the house and the Dale Foods canning factory (now Cannery Row) to his two sons. The Dale sons sold GranDale in 1983, and in 1997 the house was moved 60 ft. from the original location at 2234 Murfreesboro Pike to save it from demolition.
