Has anyone heard any rumblings about what's replacing the Dollar General on 8th? I've heard a rumor of Starbucks.
Hopefully something more music oriented.
Maybe someone will buy the Douglas Corner Cafe and reopen it-that whole block needs to be another Lower Broad alternative for entertainment.

If they want to change the names of the streets, then give them their original street names back-Market Street, Vine Street, etc.....
I don't like using numbers for streets-I particularly don't like the name "12th south neigborhood"....I wish they would call it something like "Sevier Park", after the nearby park.

In the 80’s I went to an international school in Holland when my dad got orders to Germany. We were right on the Dutch border and the closest high school I could attend was in Holland about an hour and a half bus ride one way. So with that being said, I picked up on the Dutch language. Koninklijke Luchtvaart Maatschappij would be pronounced Kōnik-licka Luked-vart Mots-ska-pay. (Royal Dutch Airlines) I hope that helps :-)
Dank je wel! I studied German in college and was going to trade shows in Germany when I was importing chocolate so I would fly into Amsterdam and drive to Cologne. I ended up taking a Dutch class at the Tennessee Foreign Language institute at night and learned a little but when I was in Amsterdam everyone spoke great English so it was almost impossible to practice! If you know German you can maybe read a bit of Dutch but the pronounciation is very different and also much more difficult. Dutch is much more guttural believe it or not.

I bet their problem down in that neighborhood is about to get a lot worse now that there isn't a cheap and convenient food option available nearby to help soak up the liquor.
That's why there is a huge Krystal restaurant on Bourbon Street in New Orleans for this very purpose.
Eating before and after drinking alcohol slows down the rate of alcohol absorption in the bloodstream-Nashville should be encouraging more food carts and not try and get rid of them.

The Sheraton was a very dark red brick color that would look good now but at the time people did not like it. I remember that as my Godfather was the contracter on that job.

Now the Tennessee Central needs to run its excursion train from downtown to the Wilson County Fairgrounds-great way to get tourists as well as locals out there.

This could be a blueprint for further development of 5th and even 4th Avenues.....reimagining this block wth the Arcade as its connector and transforming it into a Caberet/Jazz Club musical theater area-basically an alternative to the Broadway scene as I'm pretty certain not all of the region's newcomers are huge country music fans-the 2nd floor of the Arcade could become the new art gallery hub and hopefully get some decent places to eat on the 1st floor with this renovation now being undertaken.

Why would Frist Arts, Cumberland Science, NMAAM need to be together? People see more of the city's areas when attractions aren't clumped together.
As a marketing tool and a matter of convenience....a good example would be the Houston Museum district.

Their best bet would be to get involved with another private development and form a binding covenant (possibly an SP or a CBA) that would allow TPAC to operate in a new space.
I will say it over and over....TPAC (Along with the FRist Museum,Adventure Science Center, a museum of music..etc) need to be on Upper Broadway where the Reed and Beaman properties are being developed. Perhaps the developers there would see an opportunity and patronise these entities as it would be a draw for their developments. The City could then market Broadway as a destination spot but this would be far enough from Lower Broadway to avoid the crowds and the noise there.

St. Jude and Le Bonheur should team up to make Memphis a research hub for childhood disease.......that could be real growth engine for the city.

As I’ve mentioned a few times before, it’s not about the record labels, but the publishers and songwriters. The record labels have already left. Capitol had actually built a new building for themselves on Music Row in the 90s…but then turned around and sold it and moved. Sony / RCA had a really cool building on the Row…but sold it and moved closer to downtown. The true “heart” for the music industry are the songwriters…and their publishers. Many of the houses along Music Row were publishing companies with writing rooms. However…they’re being gobbled up and turned into condos and office buildings.
Music related businesses (songwriters and publishers) do not work well in the same building as any other business. This is why you won’t see music related businesses filling up these offices on the Row (for he most part). The campus that was Music Row is pretty much gone, now. That’s why I say it won’t be long that Music Row will be more about the history of where music was once created…not where it is still created. Those publishers / songwriters will just be spread out all over town.
I see what you're saying and sympathize with you when it comes to what's happening and what has happened.
As Mark says it's the owners who are selling the properties and reaping the rewards-what I hope is that when they do sell it would be to build office space which would have at least a fighting chance of keeping some of the larger businesses on Music Row whereas residential developments just pretty much exclude everyone.

It doesn’t keep the music industry from migrating out. It chases them out.
Please explain.....it was my understanding that Sony Music and Capitol Records along with others moved out of Music Row due to the lack of office space-now these businesses are in the Gulch, West End, and Downtown.
I don't want to see it continue......

If it keeps music businesses from migrating out of Music Row due to their growth that's fine with me.
Better that than turning Music Row into apartment row.

The truth is other than folks raising hell in NW Davidson County about development there, the land could be developed much the same way it was developed in LA County. The problem is they would end up having the same issues with landslides and homes with foundation problems. It would be costly to do. Not to mention the issues with added runoff and stream buffer issues.
Another issue with that part of the county is there are no services at such as schools, fire, police, etc. The closest fire station is Station 24 on Clarksville Pike or Station 23 in the Nations which for some people is 20 minutes or more away if you live off of Bull Run Road. At Least Joelton has Station 30 now.
Northwest Davidson County could possibly be developed but in no way would it be "affordable", and Nashville needs affordable housing now, or like yesterday, or...or...when I left in 2015!

I'm OK with the design just wish they had put that on the 21st Ave parking lot instead and left this area for some more restaurants-particularly now with the Demonbreun Street places having to relocate.
