    I've eaten at the one in Biloxi at Edgewater Mall. How does Raising Cane's compare to Magoos and a McDougal's?

    What a @birdpersonsees. Thanks for sharing and welcome to the forum!

    This transaction is ideal for a homeowner who is near/at retirement and wants to make a change in their life. All real estate analysis is local. There is no 'national' RE market. Mortgage rates affect all U.S. markets but even that key variable affects some markets more than others. The Nashville job market is largely based on healthcare which is recession-resistant. The tourist industry is growing and will take a big hit during the next recession. Having the state government here is a positive.

    Welcome to the forum!

    Yes! I want to play this game! My first guess is that you do not mean announcements of new developments, but rather the start of projects that have been announced. What does the Magic 8 Ball say? [ shake, shake, shake, shake ]

    I know I've asked this before, and I don't want to be boring, but how long is the period from core drilling to excavation?

    It seems that the home ownership aspect of condos versus apartments would be a positive sign. Granted, traffic is an issue in this stretch but that could be motivating for some people to move into this area, if they can afford it.

    Does anyone have a sense as to whether this development (and others that I'm not familiar with) is helping to extend the Charlotte Pike growth further to the west? This part of town could use some improvement. Will the Bellevue development eventually tie into the growth extending down this major artery from downtown/midtown?

    It's all those Woo-Hoo Girls that came to town in cowboy boots and Daisy Dukes to ride one of those party wagons! We know how much you LOOOOOVE those party wagons, Smeags! I saw a new one a couple of weeks ago - a converted fire truck!

    Lighten up, y'all! Thanks, @Sean blackdog, for bringing some humor to the forum occasionally. I appreciate it!

    As those "Wall Street of the South" firms were bought by real Wall Street firms, some of the top employees/partners used their sales proceeds to start smaller financial firms in Nashville. There are many local firms in the investment banking, equity analysis, wealth management and related fields that can trace their roots back to those big firms like JC Bradford and Equitable. In a way, the city offers more opportunities for financial professionals today because of the mergers in the late '90s and 00s.

    Quite a stretch indeed! How do you turn a 4' strip of crumbling concrete on each side of heavily used road into a High Line? Making it a boardwalk won't do it. On the positive side, I think a High Line type bridge would be a huge step forward in connecting The Gulch with the growing Edgehill area and 12 South.

    Back to the bridge... I couldn't tell from the pics or the brief mention of the "High Line" where this bridge will go. Will it sit on top of the 12th Ave S overpass?

    Nice shots, @chris holman, as usual. Thanks for sharing.

    Welcome to the forum, @Cadelfins.

    You are our therapist.

    Smeags, the freak out is just a natural response to a trigger. It's a form of PTSD developed from so many major development disappointments. We see a puddle on a cleared lot and scream, "Another Lake Palmer!!!"

    A friend was there last night. Roast beef, mashed potatoes, green beans and a beer. That's how a meat-and-three is done!

    A friend shared the link to the Owen Management Hall expansion construction. Someone keeps this list up to date. @titanhog, perhaps? http://webcams.vanderbilt.edu/owen/

    This picture captures so much of what's happening in Nashville now. A tiny drycleaning shop that is closed because it's more valuable as a parking lot is overshadowed by a 12 story residential building.

    Someone said there was supposed to be some "good news." That was March 3rd. Now, 3 months later, is there still good news?
  23. Mr_Bond
    To quote the new UP site: ----- 3 months later ----- Hello. Is Magic 8 Ball there? I have a quick question.
  24. Mr_Bond
    A classmate from the Owen Graduate School of Management said that the renovation started yesterday. Bricks are coming down. I can't get down there for a pic until this weekend.

    During my walk yesterday evening, around 7:30 pm, I passed a group of seven bachelorettes: all wearing cowboy boots and cut-off jean short shorts (or whatever they're called). Their accents could have been Chicagoan. They were walking at a quick pace in front of The Pub in The Gulch, likely headed toward Lower Broadway. This was on a Wednesday. The normal bachelorette party runs from Thursday through Sunday afternoon. This group did not look very tired so they must have arrived a day early.
