I love seeing Hillsboro Village really start to densify and evolve and fill-in after so many decades of basically just being a single commercial street spanning a couple blocks!

Can't recall if this has been posted yet or not, but the .63 acre lot at 1404  Broadway where White Castle is located is available for lease. This sliver is between the Reed District and 14th AVe. North/I-65/40 inner belt.

More info here:

No we never posted it and WW never did the story, so it is not very timely any longer. Remember the property is for lease and they will more than likely do a land lease and whoever leases would be able to build up to 15 stories under current zoning. If the owners apply for an SP, they may be able to go taller.

 

Hopefully it is goodbye White Castle. Those are some slimy burgers that would give this old guy heart burn for a week.

Even though the NBJ is reporting this as a residential project, my belief is they are dead wrong on this one. I watched the Planning meeting as they were trying to get it rezoned to residential and they were turned down. I think this was this past fall. The information they were using was almost a year old and the permit clearly states HOTEL, and not apartments. I think this is a matter of accidently misreporting on their part.

Eilliston Place neighborhood chosen as the Best Place to Live in Tennessee by Niche:

https://www.bizjournals.com/nashville/news/2021/03/23/niche-2021-elliston-place.html

[smeagolsfree]

I actually think the notion of niche neighborhoods are a joke. Funny thing is they rate schools in this area and there are none.

I really think it is a way for someone to come up with another ranking to bring attention to their ranking system. This is really a who  really cares about a niche neighborhood.

Most of the neighborhoods listed are in the broader areas of larger areas of town. how do Hope Gardens, Sulphur Dell, Brentwood, and Nolensville even compare. This is just total nonsense.
