Werthan Mills Developer to add new 65-unit building

[Guest]

Here is the link for the blog enclave, it includes a cool rendering. The plan calls for puting the parking underground and building on the surface lots.

This will be a big boost for this corner. The lot has always looked to me like it was sitting there waiting on someone to come develope it, I guess its time has come.

Excellent.

It's nice to know the affordable housing component is important to this development. Things are getting mighty pricey around here.

I think it's cool that there are some (all?) rental units. That's something that's gotta be there for a big downtown area population. And that's cheaper than what I pay out here in Brentioch. Probably for a quarter of the square feet though. I would gladly sacrifice space for a cool place close to downtown.

This is awsome news. I was asking Casey just the other day if Werthan was doing good. This would give one the impression that it is in fact doing just fine! WOW! Nice find NB.

Update - Looks like additional residential building are to follow...will make a complete lined block of infill...

This really is excellent news. Good, new, and affordable housing in the downtown area. I hope more follows.

Werthan Mills set to start with phase IV of their development. Demand and sales still strong.

Wow! Another 100 units....285 in all! I had no idea how big a project this has become. It's almost as big in housing units as the Viridian (305) for Christ's sake! The number of residents in the Nashville area is definitely exploding. Earlier I was thinking that the downtown population could hit 10,000 by 2010. Now I'm beginning to think that estimate is too low! I've maintained all along that this is truly a great thing for the future of the city.

Thsi project has not been in the news for a while.

Werthan Lofts is moving ahead with Phase IV and V.

These look pretty cool. Glad to see DAAD is the architect on the first one. Anybody know who the architect is on the 8th and Hume? (Not the Gobble Hays project) Am I reading these right...3 separate developments?

So is this building the actual phase 4? If so, it will be great to finally see this empty shell full of life. I'm sure these will sell out easily, the whole complex is quite beautiful or maybe just lovely (don't want to raise the ire of Newtowner through careless use of adjectives), and Germantown is hot, hot, hot!

I think the main building is pahase IV. Man, there is so much going on in Germantown. I so glad to see that side of DT explode.

The southern half of the huge building along 8th Avenue is part of phase IV and the Northern half is part of phase V, according to the site plan.

Thanks for the link johnb and welcome to the forum.

johnb,

Is there any place to find floor plans for the units at Werthan Mills? I can't seem to find any.

[smeagolsfree]

Try this link. I think you will find some information there.

You can see the floorplans here:

http://www.werthanlofts.com/

Their official website.

[johnb]

Sorry for the delayed response. Yes, as mentioned, you can view plans here:

http://www.werthanlofts.com/floorplans.html

But many of the units has been modified and there are a couple that are not shown on that site at all. The sales office should have the updated ones...

An article from the NBJ today. The 4th phase of this project has the funding to finish up and Phase 5 is about halfway funded now. This is in my opinion the best reuse project in Nashville. It has kept the integrity of most of the building in place and is creating a new neighborhood in German town. I just wish we had more old factory building to convert to residential space in the DT area.
