Frankie Pierce Park

Named for the barrier-breaking suffrage leader Frankie Pierce (the only African American woman to speak at the first meeting of the League of Women Voters of Tennessee and founder of the Tennessee Vocational School for Colored Girls), downtown’s newest park connects Capitol View with the Gulch Greenway. In addition to a sand volleyball court, dynamic playground, and yoga lawn, the space includes a huge area for your four-legged friends to enjoy.
