Question About A Building Proposed In Nashville

Pride · #1 Posted **Jan 23, 2004, 1:17 PM**

Ok, I was browsing through Skyscrapers.com this morning, and noticed that Nashville had 4 proposals, instead of 3. I was aware that the Midtown Residential Tower & University Towers were scrapped. But, I knew nothing about The Mayfair.

However, I wasn't aware of this development, and haven't heard anything about it. Has anyone else heard anything about it? Has anyone got any renderings of the building? Are their any web-sites that tell anything about the building? Any information will be greatly appreciated. As of right now, this is what's listed:

Floors: 12 (Could be up to 14)
Location: Harding Pike/Woodmont Blvd.
Construction slated for 2004

I know it isn't an extremely tall building, but I'm curious about it.

When completed, West End Summit Towers will have the 4th & 44th tallest buildings in Nashville.

As of right now, Viridian Towers has plenty of information with construction slated for this year. Click below, for more information:

Viridian Towers, Nashville

Oh yeah, I remember this building. There was a rendering in the paper not too long ago. You're right, 12 to 14 floor luxury tower....Belle Meade style. Seems like a sure thing. The rendering was pretty cool. I can't really describe it, but the name fits the design. Quite swanky.

Yes I heard it was supposed to be "modern-style"

Isn't this the building that bookstar was closed to make way for?

No, Rocket, the Bookstar proposal is an art deco 5-story addition to the theater building which will be built on top of the exisiting theater. This high rise is at the Woodmont intersection a couple of blocks west.

thanks, I couldn't remember.

It's going to be Nashville's 66th tallest.

Any ideas on what the facade will look like? Lots of glass? Lots of limestone? Lots of granite? Any ideas? I don't remember the posting in the paper. They must have printed it, on the one day I missed the business section of the paper.

I have heard nothing of this! I want a rendering fellas.

Seems Uncle Dave knows somewhat about it. I just wish I had an idea, or rendering, of what it looked like.

Sounds like a bit of research is in order. I'm not sure where to look, but I'll do my best.

Thanks Uncle Dave!
