NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Get out and get active! That’s the goal for Sunday's Open Streets Nashville event in South Nashville on Antioch Pike. It’s an effort to walk, bike, skate, and dance in an area that’s typically occupied. Antioch Pike will be shut down from noon to 5 p.m. from Wright Middle to Glencliff Elementary.
Open Streets Nashville temporarily closes streets to cars, encouraging community connection, physical activity, and support for local businesses. There will be a Community Zone, an Arts and Culture Zone, and an Activity Zone along the route.
Families can also tour the nearby Glencliff Elementary gardens, have a poem written by local poets, enjoy a Titans tailgate, and connect with neighbors in the streets.
Open Streets is brought to the community by Mayor Freddie O’Connell, NDOT, and Amazon.

I'm not sure there is a story that's brought a bigger smile to our faces than this one celebrating Ms. Marie. The story of her service during World War II is amazing in itself — she is a true Rosie the Riveter! What was also amazing was to see was how an entire community turned out to celebrate her. You've got to check this out!
