    People opposing non-automobile mobility options annd infrastructure are somewhat different than NIMBYs. How about NIMROWs? (Not In My Right Of Way)

    It has been nearly a decade since the Sounds last played at Greer stadium. The city has still not even begun the process of turning that large piece of public land into a park.

    The large surface lot just to the east of that stretch of 2nd Ave is one of downtown Nashville's most glaring tooth gaps. Any chance it will be developed alongside the rebuilding of the damaged stretch of 2nd Ave?

    How much of the utility work that's been happening on 8th Ave. is for this project? Has there been any progress on the next phase of development on the site? Several lots appear to be sitting empty.

    Does anyone know what the hold-up on the public release of the final master plan might be? This site says that the master plan will be released in August 2022: https://www.nashville.gov/departments/parks/planning-and-development/park-plans-and-projects/fort-negley

    The surface parking lot just to the north of the main block that was affected by the bombing is fenced off. This is the lot that consumes the whole block bounded by 1st Ave., 2nd Ave., Church St., and Bank St. Is something happening with that lot as part of the rebuilding? It seems like one of the more glaring pieces of underutilized land downtown.

    I hope they're planning the ground floors of those buildings in a way that accounts for the likelihood of flooding.

    A friend of mine, who is active on Reddit (Nashville sub-Reddit and otherwise) calls this Urban Planet discussion board "Fake Reddit". Don't worry, I let her know that Fake Reddit is fed up with Real Reddit.

    Having some height, residents, and sidewalk retail in that area of Midtown should be a step in the right direction.

    This one may come together quickly because they've already built the parking garage next to it and done much of the infrastructure work in earlier phases of the project.

    If you look at some of the other cities that are booming right now, like Austin, few (if any) have crowns, but some do have interesting designs, including slanted roofs. Crowns seemed more common in the 1980s–1990s, and cities that boomed during that decade, like Atlanta, are full of that style of tower.

    The Finery between Grey and Merritt Streets. Northern end topped out. Looking south down the alley behind Diskin Cider. Looking north from Merritt Street through what will be a plaza. View of the project from the hill to the south.

    Any idea what sort of business the "Fruit Salon" will be?

    I believe this is structured as a partnership between the university and a private developer who is building and will manage the residential units, offering them to graduate and professional students at below market rates.

    I'll add to the sentiment about West End Park. I lived there in a now-demolished older building in the early 2000s. It now reminds me of some of the dense yet completely car-centric neighborhoods north of Atlanta. Agree that it is largely a failure of planning/ design guidelines.

    I really wish that a pedestrian/ bike bridge/ connection with the City Cemetery was part of the master plan, even if it can't be funded in the near term. I've attended community meetings and discussed this/ put it on the map, but I haven't seen it show up in any of the official designs or renderings.

    Is there even an attempt to save/ incorporate the historic building on one corner of the site?

    I’m surprised that none of the mixed-use development around the stadium has been started. Was it delayed? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I would put it in league with the new TownePlace Suites on Charlotte and Rhythm on Demonbreun, but it has a larger footprint and cheaper/cheesier design than either of those. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Looking NE at the Finery office building site (east of Martin St). Noticed site work taking place on the other side of the retaining wall. Is that part of the AJ Capital site next to Merritt mansion? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Installation of footbridge connecting portions of Standard Assembly (715 Merritt Ave).

    With so much attention being paid to this block of 2nd Ave, has there been discussion of the surface parking lot consuming the entirety of the block immediately to the north? I would love to see a well designed building on that site. It could create a continuous pedestrian-friendly experience between City Hall and the Public Square and the part of 2nd Ave that is being rebuilt. For a long time that surface lot has seemed to me like a missing front tooth for downtown Nashville.
