holy shit. That's great for Nashville. It will be the tallest building in the USA outside of NYC & Chicago. Atlanta will be pissed off.

This has been one of my favorite proposals. Glad to see it'll be a supertall, as the only thing lacking in the old design was that there wasn't enough of it.

That was quit an increase. Go Nashville, they need 1,000 ft+ building. I really like the design of this. Looks like it went through a little modification from the original design as well. What's the status?

This is the updated, and final, redesign of the tower. Until told, they are wrong.


For all intensive puroses it is a go. The presell starts in a month or so, the tower has cleared all building hurdles that I know of. Metro has given the okay for the TIF funds for it, just waiting on the sales office to open and all that follows that. Once the right amount of presell occurs, the banks loan the money and the ground starts to move.

Sweet design. I hope the height is correct. The model does not look like a +1000 footer. But I have not seen too many of those to begin with

The height increase reminds me of Waterview Tower in Chicago which was originally in 800 something feet (if I remember correctly). Weird thing is, they both ended up at exactly 1,047 ft.

Tony G. ,the developer, said that the first sale of a unit will be by the first of September. So that is a bit later than I presumed. The construction will start BY 01-31-07.

It's about time Nashville got one. Maybe the spire is extra though, but otherwise a nice tall version of Frost Bank Tower.
