8 tower cranes (and a reflection) in one shot.  Looking S/SW from Church Street Viaduct, where it crosses over CSX tracks:

Took this shot six years ago today.   What a difference.

I don’t know what’s more impressive, the fact that the area has changed so much that I didn’t even recognize where this was at first, or those clouds. Great photo!

Someone should take a picture from the same angle

Thank God. I was about to say we have so much more to do on this side of town.

You would have to take it from a much higher angle as there is a building in the way where the short one story on the corner is now.

TBT: Old airport terminal (with all 10 gates!) on west side of BNA field in 1964.

My first plane ride was from that airport. I remember picking up many family members from there and once getting stuck in exit traffic (Thanksgiving, I think). (Odd thing to jump back into my mind) I remember our family finally convincing my elderly grandmother to give up 9 hour bus rides and flying to Nashville.

Everyone, watch long video. See lots of tower cranes, more tower anywhere. I think video from last month. Ugh, my neck still little hurt. Smh.

Music City Center:

Annette's photo reveals another error in the height claims by some of Nashville's iconic buildings.  Fifth Third Center has always reported a 490 foot height while the L&C Tower is known to be 409 feet.  (I rappelled and climbed this building in 1978 with the fire department so I can vouch for that number.). The picture is taken from near the top of each tower showing there is not an 80 foot difference; and, the L&C site is lower than Fifth Third.  I have always thought the 490 figure included the garage underneath.  Maybe I need to seek therapy for this obsession.

Thought I’d load a few pics from a friend who is on the General Jackson tonight. Great pics

Looking south from Cumberland River Greenway & I-65/40:

I wish developers would be a little more creative with the unavoidable blank walls at either ends of a hotel tower.  I think a few towering murals here and there would add some nice variety to the skyline.

Sure, this was taken in Orlando, but we have a Margaritaville hotel on the way. We can't be too uppity.

The Arcade is one of Nashville's hidden gems.

^^I've only been in there once, about 20 years ago.  Remind me what all is inside?
