If you download the Tapatalk it tells you who is reacting, even if it doesn’t tell you what specific reaction they’re putting in. So if you only have one reaction to your post it’s pretty easy to tell who put it in there. I’ve attached a picture so you can see the UI.

It’s supposed to be built with as much sustainable materials as possible, with the interior furniture, laundry, and toiletries sourced with fair trade in mind. Basically trying to make the morally correct decision with each step. My wife and I gave some money back in 2016 when they were initially fundraising, but I figured after I didn’t hear anything for a few years that it was dead. I’m glad Mr. Cowart is still trying to make it happen.

Alright, makes sense. I was confused by the start of this thread, which at the time was specifically stated by Lexy as a place to share news because the main page was too cluttered. And by the fact that there wasn’t a single multi-picture post in this thread until around 14 months after it started.

When the flights and airlines thread was created I thought it was to provide a space for new flight and airline news distinct from the photos which were at that time clogging up the main BNA thread. I thought THIS was supposed to be the refuge from the constant repetitive pictures. What’s the main BNA thread for? Specifically pictures of construction? Anyway, I blocked the user in question and it provides for a much more readable experience. The only reason I get so irritated about it was when I started coming to this site 6-7 years ago it was primarily due to the BNA news, so it’s devolution into constant pictures of the same random aircraft has kind of ruined my experience here. I know The Moderators hath Spoken but it still doesn’t change my experience.

I used one of those in Chicago-Midway earlier this year. Funny thing is they had to have like 3 guards around the front to make sure people didn’t steal. Why not just have them work the register?

I believe they were the last domestic users of the 747-200F, which they retired like 3-4 years ago. Also, the aircraft used in the movie Air Force One was a re-painted Kalitta 747-200.

I was driving through south loop earlier today with my 4 year old daughter in the backseat, and while we were passing Haven she bursted out “Daddy, that building has so many pretty colors!!” Maybe I found their target audience - 4 year old girls?

To provide a separate space specifically for new airline and new flight news was literally why this thread was created. Atlas has now been flying to BNA multiple times per week for like a year and a half, I don’t know why we keep having to thumb through pictures of the same shots of the same 747’s operated by the same airline. I value the poster because he often posts the breaking news in this and several other threads, so I don’t want to block his posts, it’s just kind of making this thread unusable and uninteresting.

It’s not really a matter of wanting to live far out, it’s just what a bank will loan you. There’s typically a maximum they’ll loan you for the mortgage, so if what you can afford is an hour out that’s what you have to do. Especially if you’re a paterfamilias like myself and have a brood of young’uns to house: my mortgage is roughly half or less of what a 3-4 bed apartment in the urban core would cost. We recently moved from Madison to White House, and initially we wanted to stay in Davidson county but the quality of the houses in our range was just garbage in Davidson. Or they were in terrible parts of town, the type of places where if I was a single hipster - a gentrifying conquistador - I would move, but never in a million years with my children. My commute went from a few minutes to roughly half an hour each way but I avoid the interstate and take scenic secondary roads, plus I have an Audible membership for my listening pleasure. It’s not too bad.

It seems they’re in the process of clearing the entire (formerly) North Park Village senior community, which has been empty for a few months. They’ve shredded basically every tree on the land. I hope what they’re building there is worth it, I used to live right near there and I loved the giant, old, beautiful shumard oaks that dotted that area. Plus there were several healthy young white ash trees, which are critically endangered. I’m kind of bummed about this. “Many of these trees were my friends. Creatures I had known from nut and acorn.”

I’d say that of all the reasons that urban downtowns decayed from the 1960s to the 1990s, shopping malls rank pretty low. Below, say, white flight and the crack epidemic.

Pretty much the malls just consolidated in Nashville. Hickory Hollow and Bellevue closed, Opry Mills and Green Hills (and Cool Springs) expanded and improved the experience. Rivergate is still hanging on, somehow.

As much as I hate that malls were one of the major killers of small town shopping in the 70s and 80s, I find the shopping experience at them extremely pleasant. To be able to peruse hundreds of stores and restaurants without having to re-park in comfortable air conditioning in TN summers may be wasteful, but it’s still a nice experience to me. I most often go to Opry Mills, having gone hundreds of times since the mall opened, and for all the reputation for violence the worst I’ve actually seen is someone discreetly smoking a cigarette in a maintenance hallway. That and the ubiquitous tinted Dodge Chargers driving 60 mph in the movie theater parking lot, which is an issue anywhere there are young dumb men in their 20s willing to take on $700 monthly car payments. I love that there are options like the aforementioned 5th and Broad that offer a more urban shopping setting. But the reality of having to fight downtown traffic, find a place to park, pay for parking, get kids in and out of car seats within the confines of a tight urban garage parking spot or parallel spot, navigate with kids and strollers through the urban environments that are extremely kid-unfriendly (malls are designed towards families and often have play areas for kids and parents to have brief respites), along with the fact that the rent in these settings are so high that it drives away the more price-conscious shopper, means that there is absolutely a good reason for many people to still use malls.

I think the damage has already been done with the way many people see it, in the allotment of congressional seats. I think this is a lesson that hopefully teach these states the value of investing in their census taking infrastructure and advertising.

Oh good, that area needs a coffee shop.

There’s no point in debating someone who provides their own definitions to suit their arguments and believes they’re the only one that should allow personal experiences to influence their views on stuff. I’d advise disengaging.

Combined duplicate posts.... @Pdt2f https://fox17.com/news/local/thousands-more-people-are-moving-out-of-nashville-than-moving-in-report-shows Another article regarding population in Nashville declining in 2021 (allegedly). @Brichar4 Interesting article, curious how long this trend will last and the impact it may have on Development

I don’t think that’s a BCF? It doesn’t look like a converted freighter - the upper deck is shortened and normally BCF’s or BDSF’s don’t have the nose cargo door.

Designed by the esteemed architectural firm Stalin, Khrushchev, Brezhnev, and Associates.

Wall Street and Silicon Valley moving to Nashville en mass? No thank you.

I saw this passing over me a few days ago in Hendersonville! I looked at FlightRadar24 but it didn’t even show it was there. I was so confused because it was definitely a wide body passenger aircraft, I thought briefly it looked like an Emirates 777 due to the stripes on the vertical stabilizer but these stripes were much more vertical than EK’s. Thanks for solving this mystery for me, it was baffling.

I’m fairly positive like 40% of Wilson county is located in warehouses.

It’s very likely that I’m wrong, I just based it off of personal experience. I’m not sure what the peak hours are, I normally fly BNA-DCA either early in the morning or later in the evening, and my return trips are almost always in the evening. I think the 30% flight was maybe a 7:30 PM departure from BNA. As compared to other markets from BNA that have received an increase in service I think BNA-DC Area has remained relatively stagnant over the years. Like I mentioned before AA upgauged to E175’s on the flight but that may just be part of overall fleet strategy from their Eagle partners. Allegiant starts BNA-IAD in late April, but only a few times per week. I can’t remember the last time any other new service was added in the area.
