The Party Never Stops in Cooper- Young cooperyoung.org FREE www.cooperyoung.org NEIGHBORHOOD NIGHT OUT The party never stops in Cooper- Young B y S a R a H F rierson On the heels of the Cooper-young Festival, block clubs around the neighborhood are gearing up for this year’s Neighborhood Night Out (NNO) on Tuesday, October 12, from 6-8pm (please see page 16 for a list of registered NNO parties). NNO parties are a wonderful opportunity to meet your neigh- bors, share food and fun, and promote the safety of our neighborhood. Neighborhood Night Out is the Cooper- young version of National Night Out, a nationwide program encouraging neighbor- hood spirit, community safety, and police- community partnerships for a safer nation. For the second year in a row Cooper-young has opted to hold the event in October rather than august in order to beat the heat. according to Ginger Spickler, our Block Club Chairman, “august 3 (the national date) was one of the hottest nights on record for Memphis. We think October will be much more pleasant.” Despite the different season, Target, the corporate sponsor of National Night Out, will make their presence known in our neighbor- hood once again. Each party will receive a $25 gift card from Target that one lucky partygoer will take home This year we also welcome a local sponsor for NNO – Outback Steakhouse. Kevin and Lauren Luke, Cy residents and owners/ proprietors of the Outback on Union, have generously supplied us with loads of goodies, including ten Outback gift baskets and multiple coolers that will be awarded to lucky party attendees in a drawing after NNO. “We live at Nelson and Meda, so we want to make sure we do what we can for our community,” says Kevin. We are thankful to have such wonderful neighbors. Let’s not NNO promotes safety in our community, and this year information forget that, in addition to their support of about emergency preparedness and CERT training will be NNO, they also provided food for 1800 distributed at each party.

  • Memphis Architectural Collection
    MEMPHIS ARCHITECTURAL COLLECTION Processed By: Regan Adolph & Lanier Flanders 2013 Memphis and Shelby County Room Memphis Public Library and Information Center 3030 Poplar Avenue Memphis, TN 38111 Memphis Architectural Collection Historical Sketch The Memphis Architectural Collection is a diverse compilation of architectural designs that were constructed in Memphis and Shelby County throughout the 20th century. Various classifications of buildings including businesses, residences, hospitals, hotels, theaters, social clubs, and buildings that provide public services are featured. This collection represents the rich heritage of Memphis as it evolves from a trading port on a bluff of the Mississippi into a vibrant metropolitan city of the 21st century. Starting in 1900, Memphis began to flourish as a city. Attractions such as Overton Park and the Memphis Zoo emerged. In 1904, the Parkways were constructed in a quad-like pattern to surround Overton Park. Talented designers and architects found themselves working in Memphis; some of the earliest firms featured in this collection include Hanker & Cairns, Walter W. Ahlscharlger, Jones & Furbringer, and James B. Cook. Ornate, luxurious hotels such as the Peabody Hotel, the Gayoso Hotel, the Chisca Hotel, and the Chickasaw Hotel are all results of this grandiose era. Various businesses, such as Memphis Steam Laundry, Lowenstein’s Department Store, the E.H. Crump building, the Memphis Royal Crown Bottling Co., and the Pantaze Drugstore all reflect the industry, investment, and enterprise of downtown Memphis. This collection contains nearly 60 designs from the Hanker & Cairns architectural firm. After studying in Paris, Bayard Snowden Cairns arrived in Memphis in 1904 at the request of his cousin R.

  • 2019 Education Curriculum Guide
    Tennessee Academic Standards 2019 EDUCATION CURRICULUM GUIDE MEMPHIS IN MAY INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL Celebrates Memphis in 2019 For the fi rst time in its 43-year history, Memphis in May breaks with tradition to make the City of Memphis and Shelby County the year-long focus of its annual salute. Rather than another country, the 2019 Memphis in May Festival honors Memphis and Shelby County as both celebrate their bicentennials and the start of a new century for the city and county. Memphis has changed the world and will continue to change the world. We are a city of doers, dreamers, and believers. We create, we invent, we experiment; and this year, we invite the world to experience our beautiful home on the banks of the Mississippi River. The Bluff City…Home of the Blues, Soul, and Rock & Roll…a city where “Grit and Grind” are more than our team’s slogan, they’re who we are: determined, passionate, authentic, soulful, unstoppable. With more than a million residents in its metro area, the City of Memphis is a city of authenticity and diversity where everyone is welcomed. While some come because of its reputation as a world-renown incubator of talent grown from its rich musical legacy, Memphis draws many to its leading hospital and research systems, putting Memphis at the leading edge of medical and bioscience innovation. Situated nearly in the middle of the United States at the crossroads of major interstates, rail lines, the world’s second-busiest cargo airport, and the fourth-largest inland port on the Mississippi River, Memphis moves global commerce as the leader in transportation and logistics.
