Finally, I was worried this area was going to become a food desert.

When C&B closed, I saw a tall blonde lady in heels with a tiny dog just standing there outside the Aertson.   I think she was hungry, but I didn't know what to do.   I guess I was thinking someone else would come along and save the day.  I hope God forgives me for my inaction.

Oh, that's just Taylor, who lives nearby. She eats... sometimes.

OMG that's dreadfully sad.   For many years now I have been actively feeding and clothing deserving homeless unfortunates here in Nashville, many of which have successfully rebuilt their lives and live in good housing now.  That is how I know about many Nashville nooks and crannies of old sites as I searched for desperate individuals to offer help.  No money, but coats, shoes, sleeping bags, tents etc. and for those canny enough to avoid the Rescue Mission (which seems to me more interested in spreading a religious doctrine than helping truly destitute homeless).   From everything the individuals that I have aided have said, it is a hellhole to be avoided.   Room at the Inn, by comparison is a fine and compassionate organization as well as other groups and churches that give so much to the wellbeing of the homeless.   I won't cry when the Mission sells its' land and relocates.  I hope that Taylor and her dog receive help.

He was referring to Taylor Swift, she lives in the Adelicia on the the block over.

Oh.   I stand corrected, though if she needs a sleeping bag, I can provide one.

I thought Ms. Swift left Music City for LaLa Land.

She apparently voted in Davidson County in the last election, so she must be registered to vote here. That would make Nashville her primary residence.

Returning to TN makes tax season more enjoyable for Ms. Swift (even if she doesn’t appreciate those who emerged victorious in the elections of last fall).

Aertson has both style and mass. One of the city's best additions.
