We start our tour of the Bicentennial Mall on 7th Avenue in front of the railroad trestles. The old creosote soaked wooden trestles have been replaced with modern architecturally ascetic steel structures. At your feet you will find a 200ft wide granite map of the state of Tennessee, complete with the 95 counties and all of the major rivers and tributaries of the state.
