Jeni's Ice Cream has a rehab permit pulled for the renovation of their space in the Farmer's Market.

Im interested to see who might buy the main tower, it would either have to be a religious affiliated group or require some exterior renovation.  It has giant crosses on the building.

hmm. maybe chik fil a would be interested in moving from Georgia.

[Hey_Hey]

Maybe Lifeway would consider the convention center redevelopment. They would likely be lead tenant and have naming rights for a high profile location.

I'm glad they desire to stay downtown! Politics & opinions aside, they have been a big part of Nashville's business environment for a long time and I hope their contribution sticks around for a while longer.

They've setup a huge event tent across the MCC on the other side of KVB next to the police station.  Anyone know what's going on?

One of the members in another thread stated he thinks it's for an official construction ground-breaking ceremony for Jan 16, I believe.

You said next to the police?  Then it beats me.  Sorry.

[TheRaglander]

Yeah, next to the police station. Maybe it's just overflow from an event from the MCC? Maybe something for the police?

[FrankNash]

Shelby should know the answer about the tent. Shelby....

Politics and opinions also aside, I agree with you. It just makes me wonder why they are even considering a move. It's a prime location, yet semi-private. Honestly, I think they have what billion dollar companies can only dream of. A private campus in a city center. Maybe I just answered my own question.

The tent is at the s.w. corner of 5th and kvb. It has fancy wooden doors on it which looks really odd. I think thats the symphony lot that was sold

Looks good! I feel like it could look a tad better, more coverage, but I will take it over what it was. 

 

 

 

 

Will look great being Orange and White when Tennessee's team comes to play at LP Field this year

I agree. Some of the lights are still not working. Didn't the article say the project is done? I think the lights that are red need to be repositioned so they cover more of the base of the spires. Looks too patchy.

[Rockatansky]

I'd hoped the Red-White-Blue color scheme was in support of France/Charlie Hebdo, but its for the new legislative session. :{sodEmoji.|}

wow, the street view that the article links to is so out of date, it is uncanny.  12 12 wasnt even started. and it looks like pine street wasnt either.

I was saying the same thing...that view is from 2011. If you drag the street view right down to 12th ave S, it jumps to April 2014 and 1212 is under construction and has Laurel street blocked, so the Google maps car could not get that portion of Laurel St.

[TheRaglander]

Weird.  The large white tent on the other side of KVB from the MCC says "Peabody" now.  What does that mean?  Maybe it's part of a convention going on...

Or...

 

Tennessean: Peabody, ducks appear on Nashville hotel radar (from January 2014)

 

The world may never know...

[smeagolsfree]

checking on it

[nashmoney]

I just did a quick search of the events at MCC, nothing appears to be "Peabody" related within the next few days and I'm sure no one attending a conference would want to be outside in 30 degree weather....hmmm.

Nothing so far from this end either.

1000' Peabody Hotel.  It's gotta be.
