NASHVILLE | Development Showcase

[Texcitement]

Oracle is just beginning to ramp up, but today CEO Larry Ellison announced that Nashville will be the company's World Headquarters.

From Nashville Business Journal: https://www.bizjournals.com/nashvill...-world-hq.html

* British architect Norman Foster (Foster + Partners) is involved in campus designs. (So is Ellison, including the look of a pedestrian bridge that would link Oracle's campus with Germantown.)
* Oracle's property will have a hotel, restaurants, a community health clinic and a "beautiful concert venue" with a lake.
* the company is leasing 100,000 square feet of interim office space downtown. Oracle had more than 722 employees in Nashville at the end of last year, according to state records

This came as a surprise to us here as much as it did to you guys in Texas. I guess that is why they have been holding off on the start of construction of the campus.
The entire East Bank is about to get a huge inflow of construction cash with over 500 acres of redevelopment in the mix. The new Titans stadium is now under construction on the south end of the EB and the new spine road will run the length between the Oracle campus and the Stadium and beyond eventually over the Cumberland into South Nashville.

I wonder is this The Landings at River North they are talking about or is this their own private development that will go alongside The Landings.

All of that will be on their own 70-acre campus.

The River North development will have more residential and office. Its footprint is also larger at 125 acres. It will be urban in design and layout and developed in two phases. The second phase is more fluid, but will include at least 1,500,000 s.f. of spec office and 2-4 additional residential or mixed-use blocks. And there will be a pedestrian bridge from the northern segment of RN to the Neuhoff complex on the west side of the river.

Egads! That means there will be two different distinct bridges crossing the river.

It's just one bridge. It's a public-private effort, with much coming from Oracle. Oracle, North River and the East Bank (Titans stadium) effort, among other smaller projects, are all pieces of the overall puzzle. The city is building a "spine" avenue (N-S) connecting all developments and linking I-24 to Vashti Street under I-65 at the Cumberland at the north end. By 2028, that area will be well on its way to full density.

Be pretty cool if they built some sort of urban circulator on the “spine.”

There is actually a second bridge planned for the river on the south side that is unfunded. It is way on down the road and will cross somewhere around the Driftwood area if built. This would be part of the Spine Road and Metro would be building that.
