  1. This building was announced 5 years ago. It wouldn't surprise me if this beach is here permanently.
  2. Interesting. The only buildings that could be considered glass boxes are AllianceBernstein, The Place, 2010, Amazon 2, 1201, 1212, Kinnect, and Broadwest Condos. Those all turned out to be great. Eight buildings out of over 50 seem to be causing so much hysteria. Fascinating.
  3. The Vanderbilt Tower, Graduate Hotel, and Hampton Inn are not commercial residence or office buildings. The developers know they can't charge top dollar to people or businesses with brick buildings. Those guys know what their big money customers want. And it ain't brick buildings. When businesses or people show their clients or family members where they live and work, they want them to think they are big time. Brick ain't big time. The funny thing is if Nashville was full of old timey brick buildings there would be complaints about it nonstop.
  4. I find intriguing this psychological need to believe that Nashville has built nothing but glass boxes. Even when its obvious that it's poppycock, it keeps getting repeated. The pathology is fascinating to observe. Besides what city doesn't have buildings that have four corners. Truly mindnumbing.
  5. Yeah, no tourist has ever come to Nashville for anything other than music. Yep.
  6. That's one of the better looking low rise Holiday Inns. Nashville is fortunate it is getting this one.
  7. It's called inferiority complex. When there are daily cries about "height" and "crowns" by many on the board, posts like the one you are referencing are a manifestation of that complex. Notice the attack was not toward a certain has been city or a certain never was town.
  8. I don't understand what you're talking about. Are you talking about: Parkway Towers, Double Tree, The Source, Tennessee, Fifth Third, Nashville City Center, L & C, Sheraton, Renaissance, Philips, UBS, Cumberland?
  9. This city attracts billion dollar developers like peanut brittle crumbs attracts ants. That won't be a problem.
  10. They may stay in Tampa and they may not. They've been trying to get a new stadium there for at least 15 years to no avail. They may choose to move the Rays to Nashville to take advantage of having the club play in one of the most popular destinations in the country, as well as having ownership of an accompanying world renowned entertainment district. Thus increasing the value of the team exponentially.
  11. That's quite a leap to say they want public funding for a stadium based on that statement alone. I found this and it stated they would not seek public money to fund a stadium. https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/baseball/2019/10/01/nashville-mlb-team-stars-stadium-renderings/3828450002/
  12. Is there a link to the article where the MLB group is stating or indicating they want the city to "front a large portion of stadium costs"?
  13. With the political track record of this forum it's hard to tell.
