in the Old Hickory part of town. The triangle is bounded by a disjointed section of Old Hickory Blvd, Donelson Ave. and Bryan St. This intersection, known as "The Triangle," served as the commercial core of Old Hickory from the 1920s through the 1940s. A variety of shops were located here, including a grocery, bank, general store, barber shop, restaurants, and doctors'; offices, as well as the bus station and YMCA. The Public Works Administration built the Colonial Revival Post Office in 1934-35.
