A little beauty
goes a long way during busy days.
Triangle Park may be small but it is a
welcome sight to drivers, pedestrians
and residents of Main Street.
Located at North Main Street and Triangle Circle, the triangular plot of ground named Hill Crest Park was given by Mrs. H.V. Grenade, and named by Mrs. Ada Collier.
On the 13th Anniversary of the McKenzie Garden Club, on March 9, 1940, a tulip tree (the Tennessee State Tree) was planted in Hill Crest Park in memory of Mrs. Collier. The original "McKenzie Garden Club" was later divided into two clubs in January 1952 due to the large membership, thus forming the "Morning Glory Garden Club".
