South Memphis, Memphis, Tennessee

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

South Memphis(Southaven, MS; Horn Lake, MS; Olive Branch, MS), one of the oldest portions of Memphis, Tennessee, is a community stretching from Riverside Drive & E. H. Crump Blvd just south of Downtown all the way to Ketchum Rd & Pendleton St, south of Orange Mound & north of Memphis International Airport. In its early days, it was primarily an agrarian community. South Memphis has many well-known neighborhoods including Lauderdale Sub, Longview, Riverside, Lakeview Gardens, Prospect Park, Dukestown, Gaslight Square, Wilbert Heights, Mallory Heights, Dixie Heights, Barton Heights, Elliston Heights, Handy Holiday, Chickasaw Village, Pine Hill, Indian Hills, Bunker Hill, Westwood, Boxtown, West Junction, Walker Homes, Coro Lake, Nehemiah, and French Fort. Many of these neighborhoods are considered home to many famous hip hop/R&B singers and rappers. Many locations in South Memphis are also considered a hotbed for crime and violence due to the high amount of gang influence and the overall poverty level of the area. But South Memphis is known for its plentiful houses of worship including Mt. Vernon Baptist Church Westwood, St. Andrew AME Church, Washington Chapel CME Church, East Trigg Baptist Church, White's Chapel AME Church, Union Valley Baptist Church, Enon Springs Baptist Church, Warner Temple AME Zion Church, Unity Baptist Church, Ford's Chapel AME Zion Church, St. Augustine Catholic Church, and Monumental Baptist Church, just naming a few.

History

South Memphis was incorporated January 6, 1846, and an election for mayor and eight aldermen was held on the third Saturday of the same month, resulting in the election of Sylvester Bailey, mayor, and A. B. Shaw, H. H. Menus, George W. Davis, W. Howard, J. E. Merriman, John Brown, J. P. Keiser and James Kennedy, aldermen. The boundaries of South Memphis were defined as follows: On the east, south and west the boundaries are the same as the South Memphis tract, and on the north the boundary line commences in the center of the Mississippi River, opposite the rise of Union Street; thence east with the center of Union Street, as at present laid off until the same intersects with the Pigeon Roost road; thence with the south side of Pigeon Roost road to the east line of the South Memphis tract of land. On September 4, South Memphis was divided into four wards. The treasurer for the first corporate year made a report showing that the revenue amounted to $6,266.17, and licenses, etc., to $3,750.50. John T. Trezevant was mayor in 1847-48 and A. B. Taylor in 1849. The last meeting of the mayor and aldermen of South Memphis took place December 31, 1849.[1]

Highways and ZIP codes

Several important highways run through South Memphis, including I-55, U.S. Route 51 (Elvis Presley Blvd), 61 (South Third) and 64. The ZIP codes of South Memphis are 38106, 38109, 38126, 38114 and 38116. (38116 has never been in South Memphis. Before the USPS Zip Code implementation, Whitehaven was Zone 16. The ICRR tracks was and continues to be the western dividing line and Brooks Rd. on the north. The west side of the tracks was zone 9, 38109 today. Elvis Presley (Bellevue/Hwy. 51) also never went through South Memphis. I am sure 38109 Zip Code was never in South Memphis as Brooks Rd. was its north dividing line. South Memphis never went to the state line.)
