I think about 80% of those are a very good bet (many of them already have financing lined-up, etc.)

And what we don't know yet about 2019 and beyond includes things like: 

- The Highlands' developments of the Tennessean property on either side of Broadway.

- The Exxon site on Broadway, the GBT site on Broadway (Firestone Store).

- The RJ Young sites in The Gulch.

- Plans for the several blocks in the triangle at NE corner of Division and 8th Ave. South.

- Several projects that may come to the light of day on the eastern side of the CSX tracks once the Gulch Pedestrian Bridge is finalized.

- Rumored hotel at Lafayette and 6th Ave. South.

- Rumored Heaven's Door Distillery project at 6th Ave. South and Elm St.

- Rumored Mark Bloom hotel site at 3rd Ave. South and Peabody.

- Plans for towers on primo lots at SE and SW corners of Hermitage Ave. and KVB.

-  Unico's plans for garage lot just north of R2D2 Building.

- Gettys Group plan for 460 James Robertson Parkway.

-  Projects that are bound to pop-up in the 6 square block area around BroadWest on the north side of West End/Broadway.

- Plans for River North Landings

- Some fo the rumored hotels north of Nissan Stadium

- And who knows what else?  

Still very exciting times for Nashville development.  : )

815 Main Street:  still preliminary.  There is a BZA hearing scheduled in February for sidewalk ordinance variances that will be required due to the narrowness of the lot.

I hope to see more buildings announced for SoBro closer to Lafayette.  I would love to see Lafayette from 8th to I-40 over 4th fill in with multiple buildings ranging from 15-40 stories on both sides of the street.  Additionally, I'd like to see the so-called Pie Town area developed with buildings ranging from 10-30 stories, as well as the area north of the Nashville City Cemetery  from 6th over to Lafayette.  That's one of the small areas just outside of the loop that should be integrated into the development of the core.

I hope the Broad West development will spur more similar development between Charlotte Pike to the north and Broadway to the south.  It's time foe that part of mid-town to take off.

I'm still hopeful that 2019 will be the year Nashville gets an announcement about a major amusement park opening in the area.

I'm hoping Tony G is not just teasing us with the idea of a 65 story building.  Get it done Tony.  Get it done.  Your street cred is dependent upon it....

Hope that the people of Nashville will give a mass transit system  to include rail, another shot.  Time to do something.

While in general Nashville's colleges and universities are doing well, Fisk and TSU could both use a boost.  They are not growing along with Nashville's growth.  I hope to see that change in 2019.  

Nashville Pred's go to the Stanley Cup and win.

Titans make it to the AFC Championship game.

NBA begins looking at Nashville as an expansion or relocation city (Bring the Orlando Magic to Nashville and revive the franchise).

At last check, if Briley wins reelection, there will be no ambitious plans, for transit, for a further four years.

Any transit plan will have to include extensive public engagement about what kind of transit options are desired and where, then the preliminary engineering has to be done, then an accounting firm has to verify that the proposed dedicated revenue stream will fund the proposed engineering and right-of-way acquisition to build the system and then to operate it.  Then that accounting firm's report is reviewed by the State.  All of that will take several years to meet the State requirements in the IMPROVE Act before a ballot referendum can be sent to the Davidson County voters.  That process may likely take longer than the four years of the next term that will end in August of 2023. 

That is Mayor Briley's point:  can all of the above  be completed before August 2023?  Perhaps.  Would it be likely to receive voter approval if Metro also has to raise the property tax rate during that period in order to fund the government's and MNPS's operating budgets?  That's a much higher hurdle.

It's not that transit discussions and planning are going to be placed on hold for four years.  But having a plan in place to send to voters for approval in a referendum vote before August 2023 may be possible but with limited prospects for success.  Whatever plan gets sent to voters the next time really needs to be able to pass.  Rushing it but having it fail would cast a deep shadow over future regional transit planning prospects.

We shouldnt have to rely just on the Davidson County vote either, as an alternative at least. Some of the most successful transit agencies are state wide agencies.
