I agree totally. The detractors on here have these misconceptions about Nashville that are almost always baseless probably from TV shows like Hee Haw. The same could be said about why an 871 footer in Charlotte and even a Wachovia that will probably beat 1,000 itself just to stay ahead of Nashville? Or why an 800+ footer in Indianapolis? Or why a Trump Tower in New Orleans?
While I live near Atlanta, I lived in Tennessee for several years and most business related magazines still see Nashville as one of two recent hotspots (Charlotte being the other) but IMO with Nashville having a location advantage and interstate advantage while Charlotte seems to have the edge in business related construction (not sure). I've been to both cities MANY times and Nashville does have a better interstate system.
