Is this March Egerton?

I believe so. 

[smeagolsfree]

March is not going to do anything anytime soon. Just administrative purposes right now in case anything ever does get done.

Well that's a shame. I've been waiting for them to finish that development since I moved down the street 6 years ago.

What is March even working on these days? Feels like he's just land-banking all over East Nashville.

There is a  BMX trail with massive jumps in the wooded area that seems like a massive liability for the landowner.

What a shame! Just sitting on land instead of it going to good use.

A new permit application makes it seem that Phase 3 of the Walden on Eastland (Chapel and Eastland) is back on. Would love to see this happen. 

March has been working with me and Metro Planning for quite a while now to update the site plan for the next phases of Walden. One of the facets was a prior requirement to extend 18th Street up to Eastland. While I ordinarily support connectivity, the topography in that location makes building the street in the existing right of way infeasible. If you know that area, you know that those streets back there are tiny, lack sidewalks, and have a lot of topography and visibility issues (especially on McEwen), and so creating a vehicular connection to Eastland here makes conditions worse, not better. I walked the site with NDOT’s chief engineer who approved this plan to cap the street with a hammer-head turnaround for fire trucks, garbage, etc.  We are working through approvals for an abandonment. The revised site plan lines McEwen with townhomes and moves some things around to have a larger mixed-use presence along Eastland.

What's the timeline for this project? I agree: Eastland is prime for mixed-use development!

Based on a recent permit, it appears Atlanta based co-working space Switchyards (https://switchyards.com) is coming to the Eastwood Village property at the corner of Greenwood and Chapel. I assume they will occupy the vacant chapel space.
