BEALE STREET LANDING

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The riverfront is being transformed into the Glorious Two Miles – two miles of new energy, vibrancy, and beauty fronting the spectacular views of the Mississippi River. The Memphis riverfront is being reborn with an internationally-recognized place-making project at Beale Street Landing.

Beale Street Landing is part of the Memphis Riverfront Master Plan approved by the Memphis City Council in 2002. It is a unique public space and destination at the foot of legendary Beale Street with safe and inviting pedestrian access to the water’s edge, with unique green terraced landscaping creating mini-parks, and a restaurant for food and drink. Its presence responds to the need for a sense of arrival for the riverfront where visitors can touch the water.
