I’m not sure how 66 jobs and 2 planes adds up to 50 million dollars, but OK.

BNA's Terminal Garage is Parksmart certified, making it one of just 35 parking structures in the world and the first in Tennessee to earn this distinction for "green" design, construction and operation.

Yeah, it looks like it. Time frame is 123 months.

What about all the people that live over there? Does the airport expect everyone to sell, or is it an imminent domain thing?? I see about 15-20 homes in that block.

Well that project plan has a 6 month line item for "property acquisition (non-willing sellers)"

[smeagolsfree]

BNA already owns the majority of the properties.

It looks like a lot of homes, but there is only about 5 or 6 that would need to be removed.

BNA finally released September numbers:

https://www.flynashville.com/about/Airport Data//092019AviationStat.pdf

1,526,936. An increase of 12.7%. Of note, capacity increased 31.6%, so load factors dropped below 70% for the month. I wonder if the new ULCC capacity will lead to cuts by the legacy mainline carriers? On the flip side, lower overall fares could result in higher tourist traffic.
