Memphis' Dixon Gallery and Gardens air quality benefits from the 17-acre estate garden's mature tree canopy providing natural filtration in East Memphis. Vehicle traffic on Park Avenue contributes modest local sources, while the garden's extensive grounds and the surrounding residential woodland canopy generally maintain the Dixon among Memphis' more pleasantly ventilated cultural institutions throughout most of the year.
