What happened to the parapet that was supposed to extend another 3 floors, @markhollin?

So...since they're pulling up the concrete and laying down gravel...I'm assuming this whole area will be staging for AEG...which probably means there will be nothing built on this part of the site until after AEG is complete?

I asked this very same question awhile back and nobody responded but I'm thinking that the design has changed which will exclude that tall parapet.  If you look at the Nashville Yards website it does show that image at the top with the extended parapet but if you scroll down to the very bottom where it says "view all" you'll see an updated version of the image directly above and to the right where the cladding stops just above the level of the roof and I think that's exactly how this is going to look when it's done.  https://nashvilleyards.com/

So I apologize if this theory has been thrown around already....

The garage on both of these towers have large FLAT parking plates. I haven't seen many pictures of the where the ramps or anything are located, but with how large these plates are, they could hypothetically be converted into habitable office spaces. A growing trend in the design/office building world is the idea of designing parking with future conversion in mind. I know a development in Boston that actually put flat parking plates on the TOP five levels of the building with the intention that one day it could be converted. I would argue it is not out of the realm of possibility that one day this could happen, specifically on Amazon 2.

how would the cars move up the different levels of parking without ramps?

The garage is designed to be converted into office space in the future. I’d imagine the ramps take up a small portion of the footprint of the garage to minimize dead space if it is converted.

Either that or the ramps are thought through the conversion as well.

Amazon One and Asurion really change the approach into downtown on the Church Street viaduct. The rest of Nashville Yards and Gibson Residences will really make that approach feel urban, and impressive.
