Nashville Development Thread (Jackson, Brentwood, Mount Juliet: real estate market, rental, lofts)

[Hey_Hey]

The amount of development going on in Nashville right now is pretty unbelievable. I live near Music Row and pay special attention to the development in that area. Below is a list of the recently completed, under construction, or proposed large developments in the area of Music Row. It includes developments from Broadway to 16th Ave S. It does not include anything along West End or on the other side of West End, the Gulch, the Central Business District, Sobro, Germantown, Green Hills, Berry Hill, or East Nashville. Each of those areas could compile a list that is similarly impressive. It also does not include the office, residential, and hotels that were already present. The influx of people, employment, and retail offerings will change the neighborhood into one that is truly mixed use in which people can live, work, and play without ever getting in a car. Walking, biking, and public transit enable someone to live without a car if they so desire.

To give a little perspective on the density, the area in question is about 125 acres in size. The Cool Springs area (bounded by Mallory Ln, Cool Spring Blvd, Moore's Lane, and I-65) is 250 acres.

I have the permission of the person who created some neat images of all the construction projects going on in central Nashville.

Here's an image of the major projects headed for the SoBro area of downtown between the new Music City Center and the new amphitheater being built next to the river.

Very, extremely cool. Thanks for sharing!

Man, if you have a great view in the Encore right now, you better enjoy it while you can. It's getting ready to get blocked in the next year.

I worked up a crude power point slide to indicate the amount of development either just completed, under construction or proposed for the Midtown area around Music Row. I would expect almost all of this to be built.



Although there are severe height restrictions, developers have gotten approval to bust the ceiling on a case by case basis. The Skyhouse will be the tallest at 25 stories and 287 ft. The West End Summit site is approved for over 400 ft. There will be some impressive changes.

Nashville seems to be booming, I love living here so far its an amazing city to call home. The cost of living is on the rise but I do not mind for now.

While whizzing past downtown on I-40 today I couldn't help but notice all the construction cranes in the Gulch and Midtown areas. There are a couple in downtown, too. So I snapped a picture from my car of the Gulch and Midtown areas, and I think I counted 8 cranes just in those neighborhoods, and that's just what was visible from I-40. I got off the interstate and drove up to Rolling Mill Hill just south of downtown and tried to get them from a different angle. It didn't quite work. But I'm sharing the pictures anyway. While I think it's a stretch to refer to Nashville as "Little Dubai" right now, it's still exciting to see all the high-rises coming online within the next year or two.

And there has been two new announcements in my neighborhood in the last two days.

A 6-Unit townhouse development on 11th Ave. just off of Jefferson in Buena Vista. And the parcel on Rosa Parks and 9th where there is an old abandoned church and an auto parts store is going to be developed. The auto parts will stay but the rest will become restaurant in mixed use.
