want for more animals on display.The Overton Park Zoo is now one of the largest in America attracting 700,000 people per year and has many notable exhibits. Its main attractions are Cat Country, Primate Canyon, Creatures of the Night, the Northwest Passage Exhibit, and the China exhibit which includes two Pandas, which have become local celebrities.

Cordova Tennessee Real Estate
Cordova Tennessee is a small community on the East part of Memphis, Tennessee. The area has mostly been annexed by the city of Memphis, with parts (mostly to the East of Germantown Parkway) that have been slated to be annexed but have not been as of yet.
There are three sections of Cordova as most locals know it.
- The first is the Cordova / Appling area which is to the West of Germantown Parkway and North of Germantown and North of Shelby Farms.
- There is also the Cordova / Eads / Fisherville area which is East of Germantown Parkway and extends to the Fayette County line, which would include the areas of Eads and Fisherville; and North of Collierville Reserve area.
- The third general area of Cordova is referred to as the Wolfchase area since the building of the large Wolfchase Mall at the corner of Germantown Parkway and Highway 64. This area has become home to large shopping malls, shopping centers and businesses of all kinds and probably offers the highest selection of restaurants in the city.
Most all, if not all parts of Cordova that have not been annexed will be at some future date. Exact boundaries are complicated and change frequently, have your Realtor check the current records on a specific property if you are looking in this area. A big advertising ploy by new developers and sellers is to mention "No City Taxes", if they currently are not required to pay city taxes. keep in mind, if that property is located in Cordova it is more a question of when will you have to pay city taxes and not if.
