Description
Sunset at Morton's Overlook - The Great Smoky Mountain National Park.
Morton's Overlook is named for Ben a Morton (1875-1952). Ben Morton was mayor of Knoxville in the mid-1920’s and became an important advocate for creation of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. He was particularly effective during 1925-1926 when seeking financial and political support from business leaders in Knoxville. As former mayor in 1927, he was appointed by the governor to serve on the Tennessee Great Smoky Mountains Park Commission which Col. David Chapman chaired.
