I noticed a permit pulled for the "Green Hills Sports Bar" in the Mall at Green Hills. It's the former Panera space + 3 other retail spaces, stretching to Macy's. It will be large. Hopefully the name is temporary.  Go to epermits (2126 Abbott) for additional drawings.

7848 McCrory Lane will be a 94 townhome project built on 42 acres surrounding Hutton Lake/former Bellevue Quarry. Dalamar Homes is the developer.

It's Draft Kings.  Believe it was announced at the end of March.  Interesting they're taking all the space to Macy's.  Those store fronts have been empty for a while.  Thanks for sharing!

Unfortunately the fees go into a general fund that already has its own priorities.

Where can I go to look at the priorities in the general fund? 

[markhollin]

The L'endroit (8 stories? 160 units, ground level retail, office space, internal garage) at 5915 Charlotte Pike still seems to be in the works, with Guerrier Development hoping to buy additional adjacent land in the near future to make the project larger.  These are the same folks who are hoping to bring the Storyville Gardens amusement park to the Nashville metro.

I think this is still basically true about how projects are evaluated https://wpln.org/post/how-nashville-decides-where-to-put-sidewalks/ 

And you can see active projects here https://cfms.nashville.gov/Sidewalks/Home/InteractiveMap 

And I think near-term planned projects are listed in this (long) Walknbike doc https://www.nashville.gov/sites/default/files/2022-10/NDOT_WalknBikePlan2022_2022.08.26.pdf?ct=1666110014

I know it's not finished, but the new high school is a tad austere and bleak looking to me. It's nice design for a office building or prison. Too much black and gray for me.

Thanks. So is the "general fund" just sidewalks? Or is there other stuff in it?

Prince's Chicken will build a new 2 story location at 2615 Jefferson St.

[MLBrumby]

Is Prince's even anywhere near their original location off Dickerson Road?  I still preferred that location over every other NHC place in town... it was very basic with mismatched tables. But it was simple and you knew what you're getting. Order in the hole in the wall.... pick up order in same hole... all that and white bread to boot. I can't remember if you could get beer there (I don't think so) because I got takeout the dozen or so times I ate there.

No, I think the only location (aside from the food hall downtown) is in South Nashville. If I remember correctly, the building the original was in on Ewing was damaged in a fire.

Thanks for getting this posted Mark, I had forgotten I had sent it and I knew I had seen the rendering but forgot where. So much goes through my fingers anymore, I can't keep track of it all.

The previous location was hit by a car, and they decided not to pursue a new location at that time.

A vehicle crashed into a soon-to-open convenience store in the Ewing Drive strip mall at around 4:30 a.m. that December morning, which authorities say sparked the fire.

Charlotte & Brookhollow Townhomes  (3 stories, 10 units) update: complete and open.

Looking south from Charlotte Pike near Brookhollow St:

[AsianintheNations]

Couple things in the Nations not really worthy of photos:

- The 51st dog park in front of the former El Paseo (905 51st Ave N) is being dismantled. The restaurant will turn into Field House Tavern (yet another burger and beer place...), but the dog park will be replaced with a "dog friendly patio." The semi-public dog park concept was cute and unique, but I can see why the patio would be preferable to the solid tall fencing blocking visibility of the restaurant itself. Thinking about this made me realize that there are lots of parks on the borders of the Nations (West Park and England Park to the west, Boyd Park to the east, and Richland Park to the south) but no central park space, which would be nice to have.

- Former Nashville Hydraulics site (711 51st Ave ) has been completely cleared.

- Former Solar Insulation site (corner of Delaware and 46th) also cleared of the previous structure and trees. Sad that they cut down the two nice magnolias out front. Also left tons of shards of glass everywhere.
