Belle Meade is a small, independent city located along the southwest corner of Nashville. Bordering Nashville’s largest city park space, Percy Warner Park, its idyllic landscape exemplifies what its name implies: beautiful meadow. Centered around the nationally registered historic Belle Meade Plantation, the city contains some of Tennessee’s highest-rated public and private schools and has attracted such affluent residents as a former Vice President, a Pulitzer Prize-winning Author, and several other notable politicians, entertainers, and business moguls.
