Now that this person owns three contiguous properties here...will this end up being another Midtown / Music Row skyscraper?  Will this mean the end of the Patterson House?

The Patterson House was my favorite bar in Nashville up until I moved. I really hope it remains. Wasn't there a small fine dining restaurant on the second level? If so, is it still there?  I think it was called Catbird Seat

Correct, @21jump.

Were these houses of historical significance?

The entire area is of historical significance.  This is the dismantling of an artist community.  It's not about the structures as much as the total destruction of this community and replacing it with large office buildings and condos which chases away your lower-level, burgeoning music creators.  It is quickly turning Music Row into "Any Road USA"

*sigh*... this is one of my favorite stretches of urbanity in Nashville.  It's small, but so interesting and unique and nicely scaled.  I knew it was only a matter of time until this stretch bit the dust too, but here we are.  I'm going to miss these buildings when they're inevitably replaced by some anonymous glass box.

I'm sad but realizing I hadn't set foot in (or really even thought about) either place in 10 years......

[e-dub]

Same. I hadn't even thought about either spot in the same amount of time, if I'm honest.

What was the name of that low key “rock ‘n roll” hotel that was in that block a few decades ago?

Google comes through again-Close Quarters! Hadn’t thought of that place in decades.

Ruby Sunshine, a New Orleans style all-day breakfast restaurant, will be the primary tenant of the new 2 story structure at 1800 21st Ave. South, on the site where Jackson's Bar & Grille used to be.  The owners say they will be open by the by year's end---but that seems a bit ambitious considering they haven't broken ground yet. Capacity 1ill be 174 guests.  Interestingly, it will sit directly across Belcourt Ave. from Nashville's most popular breakfast eatery, The Pancake Pantry.

Long-awaited Plan for Music Row released.  

A diverse group of Music Row stakeholders met routinely to help form the plan as part of a steering committee since 2015.

They developed the framework, which provides for high density mixed-use development around the Music Row Roundabout and on the northern end. Allowable heights would drop from a maximum of 25 stories in the north to four stories on the southern end.

Public comment is now being solicited. The final draft will be posted June 3 for presentation at the planning commission's June 13 meeting.

I wish whoever owned the land where the Rite-Aid and Smoothie King on West End, where Elliston splits off, would build something like this. It would be a beautiful entrance with Centennial Park on the left, new stretch of Vanderbilt dorms to the right. It would really add some height since we are losing the dorm towers. Also would look great next to the old West End houses behind it. It would be a great location for apartments and think of the views of the park.

[donNdonelson2]

That building at 2416 West End Avenue (Rite Aid/Smoothie King) won a preservation award from Metro’s Historical Commission in 1986. I do not know if there is any sort of restriction on its renovation or demolition.
