That's been happening a lot though. The Pinnacle seemed odd to me when it was under construction, but now it's surrounded by other tall buildings. Same thing with the Westin.

It's still crazy to think all of these areas were either a maze of surface lots or 1-2 story buildings not even 10 years ago.

BTW, wouldn't Nashville Yards and Endeavor Demonbreun eventually compliment this project?

Along with whatever eventually gets built on the Tennessean and Exxon station sites, years down the road.

What about the land north of endeavor and south of HCA building?

NES? I'm sure they will sell that, eventually. And that should make a rather large difference. That would really tie Capitol View, Nashville Yards and Endeavor together. Add in the new proposal at the old Deja Vu site, and The Gulch is going to seem a lot more cohesive...and long.

I have heard for sometime that NES was entertaining the thought of putting their property on the market, but that could have been the rumor mill run amuck.

In any event, it's too bad that there is no mechanism in place to protect that structure from being razed ─ a beautiful mix of Beaux Arts Revival and Art Deco, and built during the same period as the Kefauver Fed. C.H. , the Sullivan Tower, and the State Library / Archives Bldg., all just after I was born.

As best I can tell, it looks like all the property roughly between Endeavor and the Capitol View project is either on the market or being targeted for development -- minus the NES property, which unfortunately is a pretty sizeable chunk. Even with NES out of the picture, there are still some big parcels available in that neighborhood.

I definitely want to see it preserved. And I think there would be a possibility NES would keep their offices on site, and just sell the land they are storing equipment on....I don't know. Either way....keep that building, develop the other lots.

[wmaddbb2018]

Why does NES not need more office space that that? In terms of the size of their company they must not be that big.

Here is a list I am posting, off the top of my head of available and or property to be developed in and around the Gulch.

Nashville Yards property bounded by 8th Ave N, Broadway and east of the RR tracks. Proposed 1 billion dollar plan.

The Tennessean property bounded by Broadway and west of the RR tracks. One parcel is next to the Exxon on the Southside of Broad.

Exxon Property on Broadway.

RJ Young property in the S Gulch

Yazoo brewery site S Gulch

Habitat Store site S Gulch

Gibson Guitar property, including the Valley Arts and Baldwin Showcase buildings in the Gulch and Church.

Endeavor/Caden site (Deja Vu site) proposed three high-rises

Market street development. Various properties in the S Gulch still to be developed. three or four blocks still available.

W Hotel site in the Gulch to be developed

Endeavor/Whole foods project Broadway. Demo in progress

Buckingham Gulch site approved for a 38 story building

That northern section of Broadway from the interstate to the Ryman is about to look like an entirely different city all on its own.  Can't wait to see how it looks.

[MLBrumby]

Looks like this one's ready to rise. Funding has been secured from Bank of the Ozarks. From NBJ via NP....

I'm hoping it will be a windfall for them, spurring other banks to jump on board.

 I was at NES the other day and was talking to an unnamed person. He said they are entertaining the idea of moving, likely to the Metro center area, but it would be within the next 10 years.

Nothing wrong with that, so long as we don't lose their beautiful HQ building.

That's what I told him as well. I love that building.

From today's Nashville Post:

Austin-based developer Endeavor Real Estate Group has landed a demolition permit to prep for its mixed-use building to feature apartments and a Whole Foods grocery at the intersection of 12th Avenue North and Broadway.

The permit, valued at $360,000, will allow for the razing of the building last home to a Mazda dealership.

Hendersonville-based Environmental Abatement Inc. will handle the job.

The tower (see here) will rise 26 stories and include two floors of office space to accompany the ground-level retail and apartment spaces.

Endeavor has created Broadway Whiskey Partners to undertake the North Gulch project, which could carry a price tag of about $100 million, according to previous media reports.

The building will top out at about 320 feet, ranking it among Nashville's 20 tallest if standing today.

Demo underway.
