Memphis Park, formerly known as Confederate Park, is a beautiful Mississippi River park located on a bluff high atop Memphis' city waterfront. The park, which is located adjacent to the University of Memphis' Law School in the city's downtown district, is meant to honor Tennessee veterans of the American Civil War and World War I. A memorial honors the members of World War I Medical Society Members who died in the line of duty, while a plaque honors famed regional author and suffrage activist Elizabeth Avery Meriwether. Other memorials include a tribute to the 1862 Naval Battle of Memphis and a stone bench honoring the noted Crockett's Rangers Civil War Unit.
