  1. On my way to work this morning I noticed a 'zoning change notice OR20' sign in front of the houses across from the self-storage place on McGavock Pike right before the intersection with Gallatin Rd in South Inglewood. I wonder if that's for a single lot or if the same entity owns multiple lots down McGavock and has plans to scrape and build office/residential. Yes I know I can go find out online but I haven't had my coffee yet.

    Also, has anyone notice the new Dodge Ram 1500 commercial was filmed in Nashville. It featured the Christmas parade and Vandy's Children's Hospital. 

    It begs the question, why? Nissan and Bridgestone do locally filmed ads. Maybe Nashville had the only Christmas parade that would allow them to feature it in a commercial.

    Those commercials get made all over the country. There are regional and city-specific ones shot that are based on where they are marketing the specific vehicle for that sales period.

    Here's one for the same vehicle that targets northern California.

    It's Gallatin Avenue between Main Street and Cahal, then Gallatin Pike up to Briley Pky, then Gallatin Pike South (31E) into Madison, then Gallatin Pike North once you pass Old Hickory, then W Main Street when you hit Hendersonville.

    Oh, almost forgot: It becomes Nashville Pike when you get to Gallatin. Because of course it does. (Born and raised in the City of Gallatin BTW)

    My wife, who does environmental sampling & works with drillers says 'It's a good sign that it may be moving forward, but not necessarily a guarantee of anything. Some sites are sampled for years (or decades) before any development takes place' .

    ^ A truck was at this site today doing some drilling / taking samples. I thought this was dead after transit failed, but I would love to see this move forward.

    I'm kind of super-excited to see this thing in operation. 29 units, each one with 4 bedrooms/2 bath, explicitly marketed for bachelorette parties. When it was first announced I was horrified, but since then the sheer spectacle of it has grown on me. It's built by a local family who used to put their money into liquor stores, mediocre restaurants, etc. And it just seems emblematic of Nashville in 2018 that a safer way to make money is to throw up a cheapo airbnb flophouse. Personally, after being frustrated for years by the ridiculous phobia in the neighborhood around any type of residential density, I've come around to thinking this may be the best way to actually dump a significant amount of pedestrian traffic into main st/5 points.

    But just imagine this building at midnight on a Saturday night in the summer. Ubers rolling in and out, disgorging drunk white girls or whisking them away. Hundreds of them in a confined area, blaring pop country, phallic paraphernalia waving. It's going to be absolutely majestic.

    My office is across the street from this thing. Majestic is not the first word that comes to mind.
