    I seem to remember someone posting that the project was no longer on TS's website...

    Our very own United Nations building plus!!

    Never underestimate the power of corporate America...in America. I think that's Nashville's only hope of ever having a true mass transit system (beyond buses).

    I was thinking the EXACT same thing. I think Albion is a Chicago firm and I thought, I hope these cats are just as motivated.

    Brother, that's my starting point every time!!!

    Yes, please. Here's a screen grab from the Essex website that fuels the imagination...

    Wow. My advice to those who don't want to get excited about this proposal. don't look through the document. I did, and I'm HOOKED!!! Holy cow... @downtownresident boy was the wish ever granted!!! Thanks for posting; incredible possibilities.

    This render/shot reminded me of one used for the original St. Regis render set with both showing just how much each would stand out in their locations. Would be cool to see a card with both in them. Beyond my skills to do so.

    None of this sounds for Paramount. Especially the part about Prime. It's like TG is now competing against himself. Hoping the two towers have different audiences.

    Quick FYI. Some of you know I am one of several updaters on the wiki page. The beauty and the curse of wikipedia is that anyone can make changes. Whoever the newest person is has taken it upon themselves to make significant changes by changing the height of some towers, annd reordering them, most notably 632' for Batman and 490' for Fifth Third. Clearly it's not a UP'er as we had the 5/3 discussion 2-3 years ago. I do see that someone other than me tried correcting the Batman height, yet the person had once again listed it at 632'. Was really trying to keep the page as accurate as possible, but alas, I'm afraid that ship has now sailed.

    Playing an imagination game with myself and sharing to see if anyone else might want to play. You have a total of 500' of height. You can break up the 500' and add additional height to any tower. Two provisions: the resulting tower height can not surpass the 750' FAA limit and the tower must already exist. My alterations: Batman + 100' = 717' 505 + 60' = 603' Four Season + 40' = 582' Prime + 50' = 506' Alcove + 50' = 468' JW Marriott + 100' = 486' One22One + 100' = 456'

    Super nice job.^^^ I feel the same way as @Flatrock. Nicest one yet.

    Love the idea, yet as said above, will withhold any enthusiasm. When I read the fourth quarter ground breaking, l chuckled. My cynicism includes this fact for Nashville. the 600' threshold is a death knoll for any new announcement. 800 Lea, over 600', dead. 1010 Church, over 600', in the ether. St. Regis, over 600', in the ether. The original 2nd & Peabody proposal, over 600', dead. Paramount, over 600', on life support. Signature Tower, over 600', dead. Even towers that get close to 600' bite the dust, case in pint, TS. 319 Peabody, over 600., you can pull for it. I'd suggest not holding your breath though. How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop?

    Still love this tower even as I wish it were 100' taller.

    Power lines. Unattractive.
