  1. Yea, I still wonder where the people and companies that are supposed to fill this will even come from. Even though it's apparently moving along, the "old Nashville" in me can't help but be skeptical. We're talking about little old Nashville after all.
  2. In this view, the Renaissance seems to be the center piece instead of the Batman for once
  3. Have you read the list of names of soldiers who fell in the Alamo on one of the walls inside the Alamo? Lots of Tennesseans.
  4. I've never seem BRT in person. I guess that means it operates separately from normal traffic.
  5. Would ROW be able to bypass traffic jams? Or would that lane get filled up too. Mass transit has to be able to move people regardless of the traffic situation.
  6. I'm thrilled to see people like Jim Creason build in the old style but to modern standards. I wish more people did that.
  7. Yep. That bit about the Ryman and "more parking". Different planet.
  8. All sorts of the "good ol' days" people are rightfully being ignored I think. Good things and positive changes are happening in spite of them.
  9. I didn't realize Megan Berry was the one building all those...and that she keeps all of Nashville's money stashed some-whurr! Also, are there reasons listed for their hatred of construction? I can understand the frustrations with traffic, but it seems like they might be just complaining about existence in general.
  10. Well, you know, it's really just a photo of the Batman building. By this point I also suspect that there are people who deny that Nashville has grown beyond that little snapshot. They want to keep it the old way. I think maybe Beaman might be a bit like that.
  11. Styles of architecture come and go, but they all need those 3 elements. Here in Memphis, there are still quite a bit of those kind of buildings, and despite their age, they're beautiful and impressive. Stuff like Artisan on Music Row, will never be either, whether new and sturdy or old and in need of renovation.
  12. I wish more builders would make new buildings in that Victorian style instead of the weird asymmetrical roof-fin buildings that will be decrepit and embarrassing in a decade or 2.
  13. Is getting to downtown on foot difficult from there? Seems like the only option is Demonbreun which seems dangerous, or hopping the tracks.
  14. I used to have notebooks just like in that picture. Also those crazy pencil boxes with push-button gadgets all over it.
  15. You can't break wind on it until it's built.
