Greenlaw and North Memphis



The George C. Love house, 1889
Greenlaw is an area developed from 1856 onwards, generally north of Auction St. George C. Love had a successful business shipping white oak barrel staves to Europe and the rest of the United States. He was a crony of E. H. Crump and served as mayor during a period when Crump had legal difficulties. The house is now a neighborhood center owned by the city. The wrought iron fence is original.
