heh...uh...lets just simmer down a little here buddy. I feel ya to a degree, but the Bar Mitzvah is here so lets not ruin it by getting drunk off the ceremonial wine and yelling at Grandpa Eli.
Although I won't lie, it is funny to me that there are still people who assume, based on nothing, that Nashville doesn't deserve this and/or that there is no demand for urban living here.
Regardless, this is a gorgeous building, and like someone said it will hopefully be (similar to a new convention center) a catalyst for more large scale urban development in Nashville.
