See the lights of the Fourth Bluff out of your window. You might be able to hear the music of a local concert being held there. Outdoor sponsored activities. A pretty place to eat your lunch or view the river and contemplate life. Also walk, run, or bike the river park right on the scenic Mississippi. Plenty of walk/run/bike options on Main/downtown as well. You might also catch a work out class or a night movie in the river parks just down from the Bluff. There is always something goin on.

Not just for families. Get away from the city and take a stroll across the Mud Island bridge and step back (literally) along the course of the Mississippi from its source all the way to the Gulf. Stroll through the park and enjoy the gardens, foliage and get up close and personal with the Mighty Mississippi. You also get great skyline views of downtown Memphis from the park. Musical amphitheater may have concerts from time to time. Marina.
