    @karen5429 Here's a great overview that MidTenn1 made a few weeks ago. As you can see, Asurion's office is barely visible at the bottom of the main image - that should give you a good reference point for the rest.

    I think you may have edited his comment instead of replying to it.

    This is near the spot where somebody abandoned a pretty clean looking Grand Wagoneer a few years ago

    Hopefully the ridiculous land cost will push them to do something grand with the site. Or on the other hand, they could try to shore up their ROI and build a 50 story version of Haven.

    The term for this is "poor door" and there are many, many videos out there of people showing the differences between main entries and poor doors on housing developments. They're especially common in London where council housing is prevalent.

    I chose 2010 because I've always felt Pinnacle's completion was the "symbolic start" of our current growth spurt. But Pinnacle was the only tower completed between 2007-2015. Some fun numbers: If every building on that map is approved and completed by 2026 (which is obviously very generous), then the buildings completed in 2016-2026 will comprise 83% of the total skyline, with buildings completed 1957-2015 comprising the remaining 17%. If 1 out of 10 of those projects fall through, the stat is down to 77%.

    Put this together this past weekend: The approximate location of almost all of Nashville's 300+ ft buildings colored by age. You can clearly see the shift in which areas are being developed, as well as how much things picked up around 2010.

    It means there will be some kind of deed restriction. In previous cases, it's meant that the housing could only be bought by city employees working as teachers, firemen, policemen, EMT's, etc. The usual rules they come with are that it has to be your primary residence, you have to own it for minimum X number of years, and when selling it the maximum price increase is X% per year of ownership. They're often well below market value, so it's meant to be a way to keep critical civic employees in the city.

    Welcome to the forum dnypto! Rutledge Flats, near the intersection of 3rd Ave S and Elm St, doesn't have any parking included in the project. https://www.eaglerockventures.com/rutledge-flats Also I'm pretty sure Tony G's 2 towers on Church St have either zero or very little parking included. They're called Prime and Alcove and have their own separate boards on this forum. Edit to above: Alcove does not include parking but Prime includes a substantial parking garage.

    Welcome to the forum @FloCorg! Love the pic, you should definitely post update photos as the site goes up. Looks like 1001 Church/Amazon 3 will end up blocking your view of the Parthenon in the distance - that's too bad. Great view though!

    Hey everyone, look at these wonderful buildings and all the street front activation you could've had if we hadn't put this concrete monster right here! Feels a little tone deaf to me.

    According to Parcel Viewer, looks like a dozen residential units in a mixture of duplex/SFH by D+M Development.

    Crazy given the context that for the 2020 Census, the Gulch/Rutledge Hill census block (shown below) had a total population of only 3,732. So there's around 1.5 apartments underway for each current resident of the area.

    The contractor I used to work for was asked to quote 505 back in 2015. The plans we received lined up with the renderings below. We didn't end up getting the job and I was surprised when the building went up looking completely different.

    They're owned by somebody called "Division Street Group" but that's just some LLC so who knows. Says it was registered in 2008 to the mailing address of a different liquor store in Atlanta. The tax appraisal nearly doubled to $11.4MM in 2021, though. So there's definitely some point, somewhere, where the opportunity cost of the land value plus increased property taxes becomes worthwhile to relocate somewhere a couple miles away.

    In a perfect world I would've preferred for buildings D-F to have all car access from the back alleys and remove the private drive from the Great Lawn area. Would've given it a great collegiate plaza sort of feel. Still a great looking project though, and I'm so glad the house is not only staying up but being highlighted.

    Parcel viewer says just under 90 acres in that area. But several of the adjacent lots are owned by different city organizations like MDHA. Here's a (very rough) outline of Sports Authority's land:

    Below are images of Vancouver's skyline. They have 50+ buildings over 100m (330ft), but only 2 over 600 ft, in a metro of 2.9 million people. The city is famous for its dense core of modest high rises, which was heavily formed by the city's many protected view corridors, along with the terrain limitations of the coast and the mountains. Given the types of proposals we're getting in Nashville, I could see our skyline headed in this direction over the next several years.

    If my understanding of the situation is correct, Haven was built to the letter of the law for "by rights" zoning, so there was never anything for the city to approve/reject.

    So in terms of the ones directly touching the roundabout (800 Lea, Circle South office, and Ritz Carlton hotel), if you're standing in the roundabout it'd be like being surrounded by the Batman building, The Four Seasons (+30ft), and the Snodgrass tower.

    Wow that's like IN Lebanon, not just near it. My rough Google Maps-estimate says that's around 100 acres, about the same size as Disneyland.

    The whole thing should be flipped/mirrored in some way, in my opinion. Currently they have the terraces and retail lobby staring down 14 lanes of highway and frontage road.
