About Pidgeon

Estates

Pidgeon Estates, located between Poplar Avenue and Walnut Grove Road, is a residential and leafy Memphis neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and winding, tree-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Poplar Avenue corridor near the Laurelwood Shopping Center, where patios, boutiques, and low-key dining set a polished, everyday rhythm. Housing leans toward brick one-stories and larger lots, with a calm, tucked-away feel behind the main arterials. Dixon Gallery and Gardens adds a museum-and-garden counterpoint to the area’s retail corridors. Nearby, Novel. anchors the local literary scene with author talks and a well-curated shelf. The Memphis Botanic Garden brings seasonal color and walking paths into the weekly routine.
