This design is just blah! And it's a box to boot. Just run of the mill design that you see everywhere else. Nashville really needs stunning architecture.

Fairgrounds Speedway Racetrack expansion to 30,000 seats

Gatlinburg tourism isn't bad at all. I much prefer Gatlinburg's tourism over say Atlanta's tourism.- 457 replies

Licec replied to markhollin's topic in Nashville
Yeah Nashville is looking like Gatlinburg. Four Seasons, Ritz Carlton, Omni, Conrad, Grand Hyatt, JW Marriott, One Hotel, Edition Hotel, W Hotel. Umm hmmph. Very Astute.- 457 replies

So if Nashville doesn't do the historic "Athens of the South" moniker, it won't continue to attract Oracle or Amazon. So why are Amazon and Oracle here? There's already a performing arts center and an art museum.- 457 replies

This building went from a 23 story box to 16. Alas, that's the Nashville way.

Embassy Suites (30 stories, 500 rooms), 1 Hotel (18 stories, 221 rooms)
Licec replied to smeagolsfree's topic in Nashville
The Embassy Suites building is a jumbled mess. They conjured up everything they could think of and slapped in on. It didn't work. The One Hotel is an uninspiring box. Plain and simple.- 1,151 replies

The best pizzas in the southeast that I've had were in Memphis and Atlanta. Memphis and Atlanta have better food scenes overall than Nashville.

How Nashville is on a best pizza list is beyond me. Nashville is not a food city.

I hope the plaintiffs win their lawsuit because both the 500 2nd Ave and Park Place projects could use a much needed redesign.

The development companies are worth hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars. They can afford to develop stunning, iconic buildings that have flair. But they choose to be cheap and not do it.- 179 replies

I agree for the most part. The exception being is that I think this building should be redesigned completely. I'm also very disappointed with SoBro as a whole. Nothing there is actually appealing. The art work called Stix isn't. The towers currently there aren't. Circle South, the Ritz buildings, The One Hotel and the Embassy Suites are just glass boxes. The roundabout itself is a confusing mess traffic wise. And the Music City Center which spurred all of the mediocrity there is very underwhelming both internally and externally.- 179 replies

I agree with everyone here. For the past year the nation's economy has been going downhill. And it looks like the decline is accelerating even more than it did in '21. This is in stark contrast to the way things were in '19 and even '20. Hopefully Nashville's developments won't decline because of the current economy.

Yeah the land there should stay unoccupied indefinitely until developer sign contracts with metro that requires they build no less than 20 stories. Love this kind of rationality. Makes sense.

I saw somewhere there was a Music City Center 2 suggested because they said they were losing very large conventions. They even had a rendering. It was smaller than City Center One and would have been used to augment City Center One. It would not surprise me at all if they have some convention component in mind for any new stadium.
