That would be a 26 story building if you put it on it's side.

Sorry I bumped all the pictures back a page with my sad attempt at humor. Here's what I was referring to.

I don't think the apartments would sell as well though. It's hard to use the bathroom when the shower/toilet is on the wall.

Simply breathtaking. Not sure whether this or the Airbnb building on Main St. is more impressively wonderful

Does look very nice. However, I'm really eager to see the 6th South block rise. Looks like foundation work is still underway.

It annoys me every time I see a new large project go up with those old rickety Mayberry looking telephone polls remaining in front of it.  What a wasted opportunity to bury those lines.

Someday (hopefully soon) the city will redo 5th with "streetscaping improvements" and bury them all while tearing up these perfectly good sidewalks.

Coordinating the burying of the lines and having some sort of consistent streetscaping plans/requirements for the developers as each block is developed would save the city TONS of money in the future BUT... efficiency and coordination are not Nashville's strong suit these days.

Not sure if that was sarcasm....

Hey Look! Is that the house from Up squeezed in between the Hyatt House and Olmstead?

I kind of like that brick building in the middle........standing strong against everything going up around it.

That lone survivor tells the tale of days gone by. Oh, to have seen Fifth Avenue South back in “the good old days.”

Mountain Shore Properties, the developers behind the Hyatt House SoBro, have purchased the tiny .17 acre lot at 508 Lea Ave. (just to the west of the still u.c. hotel)  for $1.1 million.  No word as to their plans for the lot.   Since the hotel already has underground parking, there's no need for additional auto storage.  My guess is that it will become a small restaurant/coffeeshop eventually.

I am much more appreciative of the exterior of this building once we see the interiors. Looks like the public spaces were very well done and look amazing. Great project for Sobro

Noble Investments has purchased the just-opened Hyatt House SoBro for $59 million from Mountain Shore Properties.  That works out to about $272,000 per room.  Noble (which is also partnering on the u.c. Element Hotel at OneC1TY) has $4 billion in investments worldwide.
