HB 1763 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Naming and Designating - As introduced, redesignates the Legislative Plaza and War Memorial Plaza, respectively, in front of the War Memorial Building as the "Winfield Dunn War Memorial Plaza." - Amends TCA Title 3, Chapter 1; Title 4 and Title 58, Chapter 4.

This bill changes the official names of two public plazas in Nashville: it redesignates "Legislative Plaza" and "War Memorial Plaza" (located in front of the War Memorial Building) as "Winfield Dunn War Memorial Plaza." The bill amends specific sections of Tennessee state law to reflect this new name in all official references. As a purely ceremonial renaming with no policy or funding changes, it affects only the legal naming of these public spaces and has no direct impact on residents or legislation.
