Interesting how none of the people caterwauling could name which projects were downsized or affected otherwise by the city. This is because as stated the city doesn't do it. This is fascinating because there are posters who for over a decade have been caterwauling and natering that lie. It's all meme posting. Say the same thing over and over no matter how asinine it is and the guppy school will tag along and repeat it without thought.

Cooper did it! Nashville..... "They"...saved us. The Gulch and SoBro crowds are crying in their craft beer.

"They".....sent Cooper here to be mayor. He won the election. muahahahahahaha! It won't get built.

Yeah we should just give 10 acres of land to a billionaire so he can build a "mixed-use" development. After all he can't possibly afford to purchase it. What are the benefits? It's not like he has succesfully enacted policies that have created jobs for millions of Americans.

Think about what? What are you trying to say?

This is why the folks behind Broadwest, The Moore, and One22One decided not to wait for tenants in order to begin construction.

The irony is that 24 years ago the public actually forced a referendum vote on the NFL welfare giveaway. Now things have degenerated so much that a Major League Soccer stadium faced little to no opposition. Too busy with their cravings for craft beer.

Hopefully "They" sent Cooper to stop all of this.

I'm just stating facts against all of the nonstop catatonic caterwauling about glass. My posting history isn't replete with nattering about glass and crowns. Quit projecting.

A cornicopia of caterwauling catatonia. This is pit..tee...full. Glass box. Glass box. Glass box. Sniffle, sniffle, sniffle. Glass buildings are everywhere on the planet. Get over it.

Brick looks old and outdated.

Balderdash. This forum would be filled with moaning and caterwauling if there were old brick buildings everywhere.

Apparently they are having trouble with financing. If it doesn't get started in '20 then it probably won't get built. Most projects get built within three years after the release of a rendering.

Ah! Howe Daaaarrreee They! Now where are the pearls?

Miami is averaging 10k+ a game. Nashville will probably pull 5-10k alone in conventioneers and tourists per game.

The business community would scoop up loads of tickets for themselves and their prospective clients. Baseball is a major tool for businesses to shmooze clients and prospects.

Be careful guy, the betas will get triggered. Some places have it. Others places don't. Nashville has it.

Dude, nobody would travel to Nashville for a sporting event. What in the world would make you think that?

Funny how the consensus on this forum was that the NFL was going to cease to exist and that MLS is on the rise and it's stadium should be next to the Titans stadium downtown. Now it's all hysteria about protecting the NFL. It seems like any time someone wants to build a development on the east bank of the river, the pearl clutchers come out in full force. "How dare they!" "That won't work!" Reminds me of what the geniuses here were saying about River North.

And? Half-filled and quarter-filled stadiums are a natural ocurrance in MLB. With a 162 game season why wouldn't that occur. MLB makes their money over the long haul of the season.

This might be one of the five: billion dollar developments on the river Cooper was talking about.

Majah Leeguh Sahcah don't count.

If that logic had merit then the Oilers would never have come. After all the two most popular teams in the region before their arrival were the Steelers and Cowboys. On top of that I don't know anyone who cares one iota about the Braves today and they are certainly not going to not go to a game in Nashville because of loyalty to them or even worse the Cubs. Outside of the playoffs, baseball games have never been filled to capacity. Going back to the 90s, I've seen all of the teams have games with far less than capacity crowds. The Super Bowl has a top rotation of Miami and New Orleans. You can definitely now add Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Those cities are going to host anywhere from one to two (maybe even three) Super Bowls a decade. The next group is Tampa Bay and Phoenix. Those two will get at least one a decade. That leaves Houston and Atlanta in the every once in a while category and that's assuming Atlanta's Super Bowl wasn't just a one off gift for building a stadium just like the Super Bowls for Indianapolis, Detroit, Minnesota, New York, San Francisco, and Dallas. So that means if Nashville elbows it's way into the Miami, New Orleans, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas rotation (which it can); it will probably only get a Super Bowl once every seven to twelve years. 81 home baseball games a year over that same time span would be worth more.

Why? Because it's Nashville. Nashville has it and those other towns don't. These people know what they're doing. There's a reason there are at least eleven half billion to two billion dollar developments occuring.

The Tennessee Titans have had empty seats everywhere for the last five seasons for just eight home games a year. A privately funded baseball stadium mixed use development will probably get the go ahead over a near billion dollar stadium renovation for a team that can't fill the seats for eight games a year.
