I wonder how high up it will be at the NFL draft? 

Usually it’s a floor a week, so my guess is 12 stories above street level, 15 stories above gulch.

Won't matter. The only shots we will see of the city on tv will be from the pedestrian bridge.

Interesting variation between the renderings...especially the signage on top of the Grand Hyatt instead of on the building 

New rendering just placed on the construction fencing -
 

Older Rendering from earlier in this thread -

Looks to me like the Grand Hyatt signage might be on a glass wall above the top occupied floor in both renderings, though the font, size, and spacing of the characters is drastically different, and less cool in the more recent rendering in my opinion.  I'd be surprised if they wanted to risk obstructing those penthouse views with signage in any case.

Is Ivers Design the team designing the Nashville AEG project?

[Guest]

This is a new rendering...at least an updated perspective of the AEG development. I think the perspective is from Commerce looking NE. NICE

 

Also... this was interesting....I wonder where the additional 1.5 acre option is located? It may be behind the Holiday Express property.

Nashville Yards

AEG has signed an agreement to purchase a four-acre parcel of land to develop a new mixed-use entertainment district at Nashville Yards in downtown Nashville, TN.  The planned mixed-use entertainment district will be anchored by a 4,000-capacity music venue, a flagship luxury theatre complex, a 700-800-capacity live entertainment club, an approximately 240-room boutique hotel, and a variety of other entertainment and food and beverage offerings. We also have the option to acquire an adjacent 1.5-acre parcel of land that we can develop into office, residential, hotel and retail space.

The thought of having something to actually go to on Commerce is bending my brain a bit.

Which just illustrates what a game-changer Nashville Yards will be for this city.

^ ^ ^ Thanks for that link, FrankNash.  : )

For those who would like to study these new renderings of the AEG area, here they are without having to battle the rotating images every 4 seconds.  

The hotel does look to be 18 stories, as well as the other taller structures on the AEG campus.  The 4,000 seat theater appears to be the equivalent of 7-8 stories.

Finally, some spectacular renderings of this portion! I love that big photo of Dolly.

When do they expect to really start on the theater/hotel?

[henburg]

Those renderings are awesome and do a good job reminding me of the actual scale of this thing. Most all of the other renderings are from very zoomed out, aerial angles and don't do justice to just how massive all of this will be. It's kind of staggering actually.

Agreed.  I mean, I suppose it's essentially like they're building the equivalent of downtown Lexington, KY from scratch in the middle of downtown Nashville.  Very impressive work indeed.

Oh nice! Now we can see the rest of Nashville Yards, Amazon, AND Asurion!

Edit: I just realized this must be from the top of JW right?

Well they're fake. Ohhhhh, we're not still talking about Dolly...

Looks like drilling is happening on the Amazon first tower site.

There is. I counted six drillers on site yesterday while heading into the Y.

Yes, I saw that the other day. 

[OnePointEast]

That camera angle gives perspective on how much downtown is going to change just form this project alone. It's insane what's happening in Nashville.

I have actually heard the above renderings are dated and there may be new ones floating around somewhere where ever that may be.

So the pessimistic side of me is thinking this means we lost some height and creativity in the design......but maybe for once it will be taller??!!??
