Tools are the only reason I've ever gone to Sears and agree about the quality of Craftsman.      Good to know that Ace carries them.   I didn't know that.

Does anyone know what is up with Ovation? They haven't updated their FB page since November. They haven't announced a tenant since a bowling alley last year (and a similar concept already opened at the Galleria). Odd.

There were big trucks moving dirt last month. There is a lot of land on that site, so I imagine it will take a long time to grade.

With the Schneider lease, Two Franklin Park is at 81% leased 9 months before open. Three Franklin is now listed as "10 stories or more" and will start sooner than expected.

^ ^ ^ Here is NBJ's take on the new Three Franklin Place tower.  The rendering below is of Franklin One and Two.  Three will be in between these two and will be around 2 stories taller than they are.

I wish they would run out of land over there and build a real tower soon.

^^Isn't the blue area mostly tapped out already?

This is the issue you face when you only allow shorties....AND...you allow them to each use up acre after acre of land for parking ONLY!

The part North of Cool Springs is mostly, so who knows what might go in there. Still a few spots that could be built on. Between Cool Springs and McEwan is really just the Franklin Place area, unless Nissan wanted to build more. I think we'd be most likely to see the tall ones in the Franklin Place development and that small sliver south of McEwan. Funny that Ovation isn't included in this new section.

Of course, most of you know this college sold their properties on West End to a developer for dozens of high dollar townhouses. Last time I was up in Nashville, I noticed those are well underway. So where have the students been?

They didn't sell the whole campus, just the former homes fronting West End. Here's a map of their remaining facilities in Richland Park.

So what you're telling me is that this new Boyle/Northwood development on the west side of I-65 is going to be bigger/more expensive than the Rolling Mill Hill disgrace?  Perfect.

Hopefully Spring Hill has learned something from their current traffic mess and a big part of this is improving roads around it.  Also, I believe a lot of this is going to be dependent on them getting the new interchange with 65 at Buckner Rd.  Otherwise, trying to get to anything in the development would be a nightmare.

For the life of me, I do not understand why TDOT does not do service roads like the have in Texas when they have a brand new project such as this. It works so much better.
