Definitely an improvement!  I guess I should take into account too that the pic was taken with a traffic camera.  Haha

A MOVING traffic camera.

I'm... pretty sure this is a great shot of the skyline?  Hard to say though... it's so dark!  We really need some more dramatic exterior lighting on our skyscrapers.  You have to squint to even tell there's a city in that picture!

Is it me, or does the lighting on the pedestrian bridge seem much brighter and whiter? I’m with you though on the dramatic exterior lighting. Heck I’d be happy if they brought the old Batman building lighting back.

^^^The city just changed out all the lighting above and below the bridge just before the outdoor hockey game at Nissan Stadium.  LED lighting

I just love that whole development in general.  It might not be very tall, but it adds so much texture and visual interest to the urban landscape of The Gulch.

Prime, Alcove, Nashville Yards, 1010 Church Street, 1200 Broadway. 
 

This view was empty five years ago and will be a cornerstone of downtown five years from now.

Now, just imagine this view with the rest of NY's built out and Tony G's 60 story tower....  It will be incredible.

While everyone else is dreaming of 750' towers, I'm just over here thinking like, "man, the JRP and Woodland Street bridges need some design to really act as gateways between downtown and the east side."

International Design Competition targeting designs from all over the world. Partner with NCDC, Metro, TDOT and the Titans and have a nice cash prize to attract a different kind of international attention to the city.

Are the Titans going to help foot the bill for a new bridge too?   (that's a joke, please don't start a conversation about the Titans and the stadium, etc.)

Well there you have it! Look at those stone cable towers and foundation. That has something to it, redesigns of the original would be cool. Maybe make the railings black wrought iron with music notes imbedded.

Maybe this is the future of the East Bank to Downtown...

And of course, make them wider to accommodate multi-modal transit options
