beautiful hotel. Just wish they did something with the windows...though on the oxblue cam I see people outside working on the windows.

That interior is about as nice as it gets!

I agree that the interior is gorgeous. I can't wait to see how the pool will look once complete. I'm still hoping that they will do something with the windows. There is a shot of the building on NC5's website and you can clearly see a blue pane of glass near the top that is completely different from the rest. It is on the side facing Cummins Station.

^^Looks nice from most angles...except head on.  Glad the inside is primo.

I may have asked this already, but is the blank wall perpendicular to 8th going to be covered or hidden by something?

From my understanding, no

That bathtub!  Actually, the inside looks pretty amazing.  It's just the windows...

Downtown code requires a minimum of 3 stories facing the roundabout, so when the lot next door ultimately redevelops that wall will essentially disappear.

Checked out the exterior "close up" as well as the lobby area of the hotel over the weekend.  Overall, I am unimpressed - because the architecture and the interior seem to reflect someone's impression of what Nashville might be like, as if they'd never set foot in our town.

The lobby feels like a combination of a Sedona-esque western luxury vibe with the kind of Texas glitz you'd expect from a convention hotel in Dallas.  Too much leather, rough metal, and crystal glass chandeliers.  It's hard to describe but if anyone else has been inside I'd love to get your opinion of it.

Full disclosure, I have not seen the rooms so I can't comment on that.

Other weird feature is the large wall immediately to the left of the main entrance from the porte cochere.  You walk into what almost feels like a vestibule due to the walls immediately to your left and front.  You have to turn right to get the open feel of the lobby, which doesn't make sense for a property of this size and scale.

Soooo about the windows...it's the finished product? Still looks bad

I don't hate it, but the (exterior) execution is a miss. The thing I dislike the most isn't the meshuga windows, it's the blank, ugly concrete sides.

^^That actually looks pretty cool.  If we could only show the Westin during the night, we'd be good.

I've been to some very poor countries and this building reminds me of some 3rd world countries. I'm grossed out by it actually, because you can look into someone's room. That's not cute at all. I don't know what they were thinking, but I definitely wouldn't stay there.  Hate it!!!!

Exhibitionists need a place to stay on vacation, too.

The problem is that the people who got it and the people who flaunt it are generally mutually exclusive groups.

And the people who flaunt it are usually at Wal-Mart.

And there's a whole website dedicated to that...
