Is that a Mount Rushmore like bust of Reba, Carrie, Brad and Luke???!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Just what, like what, no really what?

Fiberglass! 

I'm sure it'll be 'commissioned' with the same guy who did the Bed Forrest statue on I-65 in Brentwood.

Walking home from a stunning Mozart’s Requiem at the Schermerhorn last night. Had a pre-dawn Uber to BNA for a flight to SEA this morning!

Another rendering and a layout from the HonkeyTonkBoardwalk website.   Looks like they are aiming for a Disney Boardwalk kind of feel at Disney World in Orlando. Doesn't appear to be any indication of where exactly this is being proposed, although I'm guessing they are shooting for the East Bank somewhere.   Perhaps Branson, Missouri would be best.  ; )

Pizzuti Companies (the developers of The Joseph Hotel) have purchased 2 lots at 531-533 4th Ave. South  (NW corner of 4th and Lea, just north of Rocketown) covering a combined .34 acre for $3.2 million. Currently there is a nondescript 1 story store-front and empty lot on the site.

A few weeks ago in NBJ, Joel Pizzuti, said they were aiming to create another development that could include office space, retail and residential units on a small site in SoBro....so this must be it.  Pizzuti also said he sees a chance to combine a few neighboring properties as well for this project.  We'll have to see what unfolds here...but it might be a fairly substantial offering.

The Whisky Kitchen is moving over to 1126 McGavock St, to the space formerly held by Virago. Virago has recently reopened at 1120 McGavock.   This frees up the current Whiskey Kitchen building and surface lot at 188 12th Ave. South, which has been rumored for sale for quite some time.

At one time the owners, M Street Entertainment Group, had mentioned they were looking at a 15 story boutique hotel for the site. They have since announced the Eleventh House Hotel (10 stories, 112 rooms) a block to the east. This is a prime spot of about 1/3 acre in the heart of The Gulch which should see some interesting action eventually. 

This screen shot from Smeagolsfree's excellent development map shows the site highlighted in gray at the center of the frame:

Broadway Boardwalk. 

IMO, another massive 120 million dollar pipe dream development for downtown, including a , helipad, hotel and a 400 foot guitar shaped ferris wheel.

Barry Lee is an unfamiliar name to me -- aside from being "a middle Tennessee" man as described by WZTV, does he have any development background? Or is he the type who talks a big game and lets it end there?

He's the man who figured out that if you spend ten minutes creating plans and renderings for anything you want you can be on the local news.

The 1.28 acre site at 645 Division St. (former Myers Carpet site) in the Gulch is being sold by Tim Reynolds for $13 million to an unidentified NYC-based development company. The deal is supposed to be finalized by year's end. Reynolds had paid $8.9 million for it just 10 months ago. No word on what the developers have in mind.  Up to 16 stories is allowed by Metro's bonus height program.

What in the world is it without the "bonus height"??

How often do developers go in and argue for more height and how often are they successful?

in NYC, if you do Inclusionary Housing, you get bonus height. I know state legislators banned IH here, however.

I’m pretty sure that bonus height is almost always granted. I am personally sick and tired of height restrictions close to the core. Small town thinking to have height restrictions in sobro and the gulch 

I understand height restrictions if there is a certain vibe/atmosphere you're trying to preserve.  But outside of Germantown/Salemtown there are literally no areas inside the inner loop that aren't already a highrise district that is anything more than empty dirt lots and aluminum warehouses.  So what is it they're trying to achieve with these height restrictions in places like SoBro or south Gulch?   It makes no sense.

Its a Planning Commission Thing and it will take the Mayor and several Council Member pushing for another change in the downtown code, and doing away with MDHA's involvement  in any say inside the core of Nashville. They should do away with the bonus height program, the set backs and require all buildings to have the items needed for those bonus programs such as LEED, Ground floor retail, proper ratio of parking etc. If you require it up front, then there is no need for a bonus program.

So did one of the other restaurants close? Or did they use unused space?

Another West Trinity Lane site that borders on the Cumberland River covering 41 acres is being touted as a massive mixed-use project called River Park on the Cumberland.  Asking price for the parcel at 1421 Baptist World Center Drive is $98.4 million. The owners are the Baptist World Center Church. An additional 40 acres may be available, but no asking price is mentioned on those yet. Pages Branch Creek also runs through the property and empties into the Cumberland.  Current zoning allows for structures of up to 15 stories, and the renderings below are for conceptual purposes only.
