About Tennessee
Town
Tennessee Town, located between SW 6th Ave and SW 10th Ave, is a historic and residential Topeka neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and early-20th-century homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Washburn University campus edge near SW 17th St and SW College Ave, where brick academic buildings and steady foot traffic set the pace. Porch-front bungalows and larger foursquares mix with small apartment buildings, giving the streets a lived-in, walkable feel. Gage Park and its cultural campus add green space and weekend energy. Washburn University and the Mulvane Art Museum serve as local pillars for lectures, exhibits, and community events. The Kansas Children’s Discovery Center anchors nearby play-and-learn programming in a modern setting.
