Something big has happened on the east of the Mississippi River.
Tom Lee Park has long been an important place for Memphis. It has undergone a spectacular, $61 million renovation and is now a world-class location, completely transforming the city's riverfront.
Get there next month for two big festivals: Riverbeat music festival and Smokeslam, a huge barbecue contest.
We spoke with Carol Coletta, president and CEO of Memphis River Parks Partnership, the group that led the renovation and oversees Tom Lee Park and many other Memphis river parks.
