I love the look of the top proposal by Tony G.

I agree. Although, he seems content having the highest occupied floor, I’m hoping he resurrects Signature Tower at some point.

This exterior design is just cold and underwhelming. The curve part is okay but other than that it’s just meh. Any city would welcome a 600’ tower but Nashville developers always seem to sacrifice height and go long (and length makes it appear even shorter). A taller (even 650’ since the city fathers are allergic to heights) more slender building with a nice roofline scheme or even a crown would make it stand out.

Completely agree.

Metro Nashville’s IDB approved the city’s TIF package 7-2, and will send it to Metro Council for vote on May 4th.

The Landings has already started construction. Oracle stated at the meeting last night they are planning to break ground on their campus by the end of June. Much of that will be new streets and other infrastructure at first. Not clear on when they plan to start their actual buildings or the bridge to Germantown.

Highwoods announced their plans for the former Tennessean site. A 41 story residential tower, and a 28 story Office tower. Dubbed Gulch Central, Highwoods hopes to have a tenant in hand and start construction within the next 12 months.

This just came across my NBJ twitter feed. Two more towers. With all the proposed towers, the CBD will have over 60 towers of 300' or more by 2025. It's a great time to be in Nashville TN!

It's called Gulch Central, which is appropriate for its location between North/South Gulch. It fronts Broadway and connects the new towers of Midtown with the new towers of Downtown. Nashville's exploding with growth and development.

There's a total of 920,000 s.f. of office space in twin towers and low rise buildings
920K s.f. of office space in a 28-story and 6-story buildings
A total of 350 unit residential tower of 41-stories
40,000 s.f. retail in 6 story building on 'lower' level of the property; fronts 11th Avenue
Green space and pedestrian/bike connectivity between Broadway and 11th Avenue (lower level) of the Gulch

Here's a few pics from the Bizjournals:

Obviously Nashville’s transit woes aren’t choking growth.

Those people are geniuses you know.

I recall certain "experts" on the forum saying this would never get off the ground.

Let the wailers wail like cheap plastic.

You are a truly perplexing individual.

Very excited for this development!! It offers a little bit of everything, uses the space available to it very creatively and efficiently, put all parking underground, and even addresses the street with retail on multiple sides. Oh, and not to mention it is a rather handsome design! This will do wonders for serving as a physical connection between downtown and The Gulch.

I wish some "journalists" would stop this. It's a digital hub Oracle is developing in Nashville. It's not a (first second or third) headquarters. We're going to see this more and more with software (and other tech) companies...Expanding in cities with a well-educated workforce.

For example, Google, Facebook and Apple will have more employees in their Austin offices in the next few years than at their respective global headquarters. None of those offices are a "second" or "third" headquarters. They are hubs.

Regardless. This is huge for the Nashville community.
