Information

3501 Old Nashville Highway: During the 1930s, Public Works Administration (PWA) workers built and improved the infrastructure of many of the country’s national parks, including the newly opened battlefield park at Stones River. PWA workers secured the park’s perimeter by putting up a wire fence and planting vegetative buffers, regarded the park’s tour road and the Nashville Pike, and improved the park’s open fields.
