Interesting quotes from the article: "In an interview Dorf said existing liquor laws in Nashville won't allow him to make wine on the premises. "We will still go on and build out a winery there, while we work to change the legislation," said Dorf. But getting new laws passed, Dorf noted, could take years." Understatement. "Dorf wouldn't disclose the exact address of his new City Winery location in Nashville. But he indicated the warehouse property is situated between the city's new downtown convention center and the Gulch." Wondering where this might go. Plenty of warehouse stock in the 8th / Division area, and would seem like a good fit with Jackalope, Yazoo and TN Brew Works.

Nice pic. Boxy, yes, but the Omni has turned out better than I expected. The 5th Ave and KVB sides at street level are nearing completion and it looks like they will do a good job of activating those streets. Good choice of materials at street level on those sides also. The 4th Ave side is a different story... Speaking of 5th Ave, I've noticed the resurfacing taking place between Demonbreun and Broad. The concrete pattern sort of extends the Hilton/Hall of Fame plaza across 5th to the arena and almost makes the whole area from the Omni/MCC/HOF up to Broad feel like one large civic space. The Bridgestone's new "back door" at 5th and Demonbreun should contribute to this. Based on the new traffic lights, it also looks like 5th will go to 2-way traffic between Broadway and KVB. Does anyone know?
