I miss baseball.

@markhollin probably not going to fill the void for a baseball fan, but just fyi I heard that ESPN is going to start broadcasting the South Korean pro baseball league games... I mean, hey, it's something!  Haha

I ventured into the eerily empty downtown for a walk late afternoon/early evening on Wednesday. Here are a few photos.

That's such a nice photo, and makes the Nashville I knew almost unrecognizable (thanks Batman). I'm sure partly b/c of the houses in foreground, but this reminds me a bit of a California city. Perhaps that's not the most flattering thing to say about a city, but I'm just referring to this angle of the skyline.

When I see skyline shots, I can't help imagining how gaps could/would be filled in, usually with no building(s) planned for those places. But Nashville has the luxury (not only being in a boom but) of actually having buildings underway or proposed to fill in the gaps above. Left to right: One22One (u/c); Novel Edgehill (u/c foreground); Amazon 3 (prop), possibly blocked from view someday by Buckingham Gulch;  W Hotel (u/c); Embassy Suites/One (u/c) will block the glimpse of R2D2; 801 Lea (u/c); Greystar Gulch (u/c); Four Seasons (u/c). Plus, anything built at the KVB Roundabout will stand out from this perspective. One or two of the Hines/Reed development may also be visible.

So imagine the above with Paramount looming above it all.

Remember this Comparison?

It was really cool to see that be created on here before going totally  viral on Nashvillian social media. We may have to hit them again with a new version after these new towers finish up.

The full picture;

It went viral around the world. There were at least 2 million views, by my figuring, and people in Europe and Asia were even talking about it. It also, reportedly, appeared on a national news program.  People were amazed a city could transform like that in a short period. 

It was a collaboration between donNdonelson2, TitanHog,  and myself.

Oh yeah, and instagram passed it around, also.

The 10 year comparison should be even epic-er.

I remember before Encore condos and pinnacle building was constructed how small our skyline was I was thrilled to see towers south of Broadway when they went up

A friend told me about a CBS All-Access tv show called "Tell Me A Story" that was shot here last year...so I watched the season over the last few days and took some screenshots.  They focused a LOT on the beauty of the area.
