Added four more to the bottom thanks to Gannman.

Mark do you want me to keep this posted here or move back over to Project Thread. Posted on this one by mistake. I just want to keep on an active thread because if it is its own thread then it will get archived  and we cant access it anymore.

What about the apartment towers atop the Public Square Garage?  Anyone think that will ever happen? Does it belong on this list?

[titanhog]

Doing the “5 page bump” for  live cam links.  Let me know if you guys know of any I've missed.  Hoping to find some new cameras eventually because some of these are nearing their end.

I am reposting from the CBD thread as I posted this there by mistake.   Also a big thanks to Titanhog for keeping track of the camera links. It seems everyone on the board has something unique to ofA big thanks to all that helped me out on this one. If anyone wants these images, feel free to grab and save. The more people that have them the better chance they have at surviving.

This is the complete list in no particular order of all buildings, projects, visions, lame brained ideas, and dreams that could have been in Nashville. Who knows, we may see a resurrection of one or two of these someday.(and no I do not know anything)

EUROSPHERE			https://i.imgur.com/JirojWB.jpg	img. & documentation of courtesy Randy Diamond who was the author and designer :The site of this project was at the present Skyline Hospital. It was a massive area from Dickerson Pike to I-65 and bounded by Due West and Briley Parkway. Across Dickerson Pike, there was a proposal including a 20 story Tennessee Financial Tower, a huge zoo proposal, an 18 hole golf course over by Brick Church Pike and over by I-24, an Olympic Equestion Complex. The project on the east side of Dickerson was called Eurosphere and was to be a massive mall with entirelly European tenants, including Harrods Department store out of London. There were 3 high end residential complexes based on historic French, English and Swiss designs. Even a working windwmill and a Belgian complex for chochlateers. We got as far as negotiating with Gresham Smith and Ragan Smith Associates to produce working drawings. Then the US economy crashed and the project was lost. It included a full scale copy of the Flavian Arena from Rome, Big Ben and the Arch D'Triumph. What you see here is the windmill and such up on top of the big hill by the hospital. You got up there either by car or the world's longest escalators entered below from inside a replica of the Crystal Palace. All the parking was completely in garages like the one you see screened by falling water.

Sorry guys I got some of the post out of order when I moved them and I reposted this list anew as well.  I have yet to add the addition of the apartments over the Music City Central. 

I didnt see your post until this morning Don and I have to find the rendering   unless you have. Seems as if there were two.

I also added the Pantheon Project that was to have gone where the UMPH was, where the JW Marriott is now. In hind site, at looking at a lot of these projects, I do which we got some, especially Tony's projects that have been posted as I have my favorites. There are a lot I am so glad never got built as we got much better projects in the long run.

 

This endeavor got a little out of hand once I started looking and found there were a lot more than I realized.

Let us know what your favorites were.

Here are a couple of renderings of the proposed addition above the Public Square Garage, and the related improvements to the property.

This is my favorite design from the impressive collection of the unbuilt.

There is no rainbow without a little rain. Look ahead to brighter days and higher rooftops...a new tallest will happen eventually. Until then, we dream!!!

Not so much the height, but the quality of the architecture.

Well to shed a little humor on the subject, here is one from a few years ago...... I am still going through renderings and still finding crazy stuff!

I found a 2019 email from the Civic Design Center about this. The links in the email dont work anymore, but I took some screen shots.

[smeagolsfree]

You are the man. I think there was another rendering from 2006 as well but I have not seen that one in ages... Thanks You!

[BnaBreaker]

So are there no plans to build anything atop the Music City Central or the Public Square Garage at all anymore??  That'd be a shame if they opted against such efficient and smart usages.

There is a height restriction in the areas to the west, north, & east surrounding the Tennessee State Capitol Building to protect the views. That is specified in the downtown code (see screenshot below). I think I recall there being a restriction on new residential construction in the area immediately surrounding the Capitol as well, although I cannot find documentation of that recollection. I did come across one document online that noted the long term goal to acquire the Capitol Towers residential building  for the return of that corner of the Capitol to a part of the state government campus after its demolition.

I an still holding out hope for the Public Square Garage project as I still have it on the development map.  You never know!

If that is drawn to scale, then it will be taller than the UBS tower!! Isn't that a Giarratana project, or did he sell the garage already?

Stoltz Real Estate of Philadelphia is the building owner. I believe Tony’s Premier Parking still operates the garage, but I don’t think he was ever the owner of the building. Stoltz also owns the Stahlman Apartment Building and an office building at 4th & Church, I believe.

Btw…I contacted Hoar Construction and asked if they would share their Broadwest live cam…and they told me they don’t have one.  I could have sworn when they first started building, there was a live cam that someone discovered, but then the contractors made it private.  Am I correct about that?

Turner is handling the office tower, they may have a live cam.
