Audubon Drive Possibly National Historical Landmark

It seems like Elvis' former home on 1034 Audubon Drive in Memphis Tennessee will be appointed a National Historical Landmark next year. Elvis lived in this nice ranch style house for one year from early 1956 to March 1957. It was the first house that he ever owned. He was very happy about it but had to move to Graceland to get some privacy. The house is open to the public these days. It's owned by the authors Mike Freeman and Cindy Hazen. Bill Burke says he has no information Elvis' former house will be appointed a National Landmark.

National Historic Landmarks are nationally significant historic places designated by the Secretary of the Interior because they possess exceptional value or quality in illustrating or interpreting the heritage of the United States. Today, fewer than 2,500 historic places bear this national distinction.
