This could be a traffic nightmare at this intersection. I hope they use Hapwood Drive for most of the exits and entrances. I can't see Charlotte Pike can add an entrance at that odd intersection.

More on this project from NP. 

Novel (stylized as NOVEL) will offer 436 apartment residences located in multiple buildings on 17 acres. The main address is 7025 Charlotte Pike, with the west side site located near the 201 exit of Interstate 40 and Nashville West.

Wow! The 1970s called and they want their apartment complex back.  No apparent attempt to make it even appear like it was built in his century. So is this really a new project or a rehab?  The sat photo looks as though it's already there or been under construction long enough to show up.

They are actually taking images more often now. Lots of places dirt is showing being moved and many of those projects are still under construction.

If I’m not mistaken I think they’ve been working on this for close to a year, if not longer. This is just the style for areas like Bellevue and this part of West Meade: winding roads through the complex, surface parking near the buildings, perhaps some trails, etc through the complex. It’s appealing if you want the features that come with apartment living without feeling like you’re in too urban of an area. That being said, it’s totally got the 1970s, Lakes-of-Bellevue feel and look to it.

Lots of apartments being built out that way. The new Crescent Novel project is only about a half mile from there and the new River Top apartments are  being built close by as well. Its Garden style apartment hell.

The former Charles Bass Correctional Complex in West Nashville will be remade into an underground quarry, if plans are approved.

The proposed plans were shared with community residents Thursday night. Rogers Group Inc. wants to relocate its longstanding Reostone quarry away from the residential community it currently abuts along Robertson Avenue near Rock Harbor Marina. 

The former prison, at 7177 Cockrill Bend Boulevard, is about a half-mile north of the quarry in an industrial area near the Cumberland River. Rogers bought it for $12.1 million last year. 

"This is probably one of the biggest win-wins I've ever gotten the chance to stand in front of folks and talk about," said Brian Ledford, regional vice president at Rogers Group. "When we move all these things farther away, there's going to be a reduction in noise and dust."

That will be great if it takes all of the truck traffic off of Robertson Rd. All of the big trucks keep that road in bad shape not to mention the extra traffic.

What's the difference between an underground quarry and a mine?

Recent sessions of the Charlotte Pike Community Planning Study have distilled seven distinct character areas with development goals:

• Western gateway: Mid-rise (four to six stories), mixed-use buildings to anchor the Charlotte and White Bridge intersection and create an entrance to the corridor from the west.

• Floodplains: Mid-rise (four stories) mixed-use buildings focused on reclaiming the Richland Creek floodplain, prioritizing open space over greater intensity. Developers working on reclaimed floodplain would be cleared to build up to six stories.

• Interstate-facing: Mid-rise (four stories), mixed-use buildings to address Alabama Avenue, serving as the face of the corridor as seen from the interstate. Such built fabric would bridge the gap between the interstate and the adjacent old-school character of the corridor.

• Historic: Low-rise (three stories) buildings in the corridor’s “historic heart,” focused on adaptive reuse and redevelopment. Intended to preserve and enhance a “Main Street” character, of sorts.

• Industrial homage: Mid-rise (three stories) mixed-use buildings to cultivate a walkable center for the corridor. Intended to preserve some of the area’s industrial roots through adaptive reuse of historic buildings. Developers renovating older structures could be cleared for up to four stories.

• Interstate buffer: Mid-rise (four stories) mixed-use buildings to provide a buffer between Interstate 40 and lower-intensity areas. Developments with dedicated public, open space could have buildings rising to six stories.

• Downtown entrance: Low-rise (three stories) mixed-use buildings intended to create a transition between the corridor area and Midtown/downtown Nashville.

Of note, none of these goals would affect current zoning.

I saw that a permit has been pulled for North Italia

It seems that the rendering showing store names may be pretty accurate

This! I am so in support of this. Charlotte Pike has so much character, but has been in dire need of a major facelift for a long time.
