Things happen when fans quit on a coach. That never happens at Neyland any other time, but it’s a normal day at Vandy’s stadium.

The last update was that there may not be any movement on it until December.

Is there an example of a city that did not have an urban environment built correctly in the early 20th century, but was developed correctly in the last few decades, despite the existence of the automobile? Is Portland an example?

 

Downtown / Midtown Atlanta as well as downtown / uptown Dallas are gradually getting to that point.  They're sort of being forced to build high-density developments given the increasing desire for urban living and their continued (relatively rapid) population growth.

I'd give both of them another 20 years.

EDIT: Austin and Denver's getting there too.

and the amount of people in that photo would still be too many to fit inside of Dudley

Alright, alright, let's stop with the fan bashing. As much as I like to poke fun at Vandy, this isn't the thread for it.

Tonight at the Ascend - The Shelters,  Dr.  Dog and The Head and the Heart.  Perfect night,  perfect temp,  great city. Friends from Atlanta were mightily impressed.

^^One of the best moves the city has made was to build an amphitheater on that site.
