Whitehaven, located between the Mississippi state line and Memphis International Airport, is a historic and residential Memphis neighborhood with a landmark mansion and a broad, commercial corridor. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Elvis Presley Boulevard at E. Raines Road, where souvenir shops, barbecue counters, and tour traffic cluster beside everyday storefronts. Graceland and the adjacent Elvis Presley’s Memphis anchor the area’s cultural gravity. Ranch-style houses and mid-century brick homes line wide streets, while larger parcels and mature trees soften the edges. Southland Park and T.O. Fuller State Park add green space for walks and weekend routines. Major arterials like U.S. 51 keep the geography oriented toward the river, the airport, and South Memphis.
