At the north end of Grand Boulevard is the Tallahatchie Bridge, made famous when Greenwood's own Bobbie Gentry captured the mystery in her 1967 song, "Ode to Billy Joe." Across the bridge is County Road 518, a road seared into the nation's consciousness as Money Road. This two-lane stretch of asphalt carries you to Little Zion Baptist Church, the gravesite of bluesman Robert Johnson, a cryptic character infused with talent so deep that many credited it to a deal with Satan himself. Five miles or so further up Money Road, the crumbling walls of Bryant's Grocery are all that remain to mark one of the darkest chapters in American history.
