Cannons

...on Cameron Hill. There are a lot of cannons around Chattanooga. Some are in parks and others are in peoples' yards. This cannon is in Boynton Park, which is a small park overlooking downtown. Other than the cannons, there are some benches and Civil War plaques. It is located right next to Blue Cross Blue Shield. Here is more information on the history of the hill.

Our city has been in this location since the late 1600s and I can only think of 1 cannon. Well there's the Vietnam era 105mm howitzer but I don't think that really counts. Very cool that you've preserved your history!
