A head-on shot of Nashville's famed Parthenon replica

The Parthenon in Centennial Park

Almost bafflingly, Centennial Park is a hidden gem in some ways. Ask a local the last time they visited. Inquire of a visitor if a trip to the West End Avenue green space is planned. Ponder when you last spent time at the Parthenon-anchored urban park. For those who haven’t visited recently — do so. Phase two was completed earlier this year, with the 19 acres reinvented under the watch of the Centennial Park Conservancy and the Metro Parks Department. The first two phases of the plan carried a price tag of $21 million. Work on the $4 million Park Plaza/event pavilion phase is underway.
