March 24, 2015 - A track runner for Kipp Memphis Collegiate High School, formerly Cypress High School, runs a relay leg during practice on Howell Ave. in the Hyde Park neighborhood Tuesday afternoon. The school is without a track, so student athletes perfect their sprints and mid-distance runs on streets and around the school building in this once thriving community. In 1970, Census Tract 6 in Hyde Park had more than 5,500 people. It is now a shell of its former self with, as few as, 2,152 residents counted in the 2010 census. The median income of $14,710 is two-thirds what it was in 1970, when adjusted for inflation. (Yalonda M. James/The Commercial Appeal)
