The center of the drive has a median with beautiful plantings and flowering bushes too. This is a large area and once in it you are totally surrounded by this beauty for a quite few moments.
I wish the wordsmiths BK or PTurner or Boomer would use their skills to describe this place.
I always feel such tranquility there and drink in the absolute beauty of it.

Gracie, you described it beautifully.
That section of Buena Vista is stunning.
Whenever we have first-time visitors in TV
(which seems to be every time we go-- sheesh), I drive them to LSL via Morse for the beautiful view going over the bridge. When we come back up to the northside, I drive south to Odell, then take Odell back to Buena Vista, just to take in that whole magnificent section of Buena Vista.
We also love the Spanish moss-dripping live oaks on the northside golf courses. Who cares what you score in their presence.
I think that I shall never see
