If you love music, you're definitely going to love Nashville
Tennessee ! Although the city is rather spread out, properties are concentrated in three
main areas: East Nashville Tennessee, which covers the Opryland area; Midtown Nashville,
near "Music Row"; and Downtown Nashville Tennessee, which includes the business
district. Founded in 1779, Nashville was
originally called Fort Nashborough, in honor of acclaimed Revolutionary War hero General
Francis Nash. In 1784, the community's name was changed from Nashborough to Nashville. The
city became Tennessee's capital from 1812 to 1815 and was permanently established as the
capital in 1843.
Nashville is the capital of Tennessee and a vital
transportation, business and tourism center for North America. The Nashville Metropolitan
Statistical Area (MSA), in the state's center, comprises eight counties and over one
million in population. The Nashville region's economy is diverse and mirrors the national
economy. The area benefits from low unemployment, consistent job growth, substantial
outside investment and expansion, and a well-trained, growing labor force.

 The
Nashville Downtown Partnership is a non-profit organization whose core purpose is "to
make downtown Nashville the compelling urban center in the Southeast in which to live,
work, play and invest." |
Ask any downtown resident what the
advantages of urban living are - and you get as many different answers as there are
residents! But there is a common theme-people enjoy being where the action is. Downtown
living means convenience to sports and entertainment venues
access to a variety of
restaurants within easy walking distance of home
great skyline views of the tall
buildings, City Hall or the State Capital, Riverfront Park and the Cumberland River.
Imagine standing in your living room and looking directly across at the football stadium.
And if you happen to work downtown-as some 66,000 people do every day-it's only a short
walk to the office. No more commuting!
Downtown Nashville is a unique neighborhood-not a carbon copy of suburban developments.
Residences are in a wide variety of locations-large high-rise apartment buildings, small
historic structures that have been renovated, and upper level units above retail or office
space.
From young single professionals to "empty nesters," more and more people want
the urban lifestyle that downtown Nashville offers. With high occupancy rates at existing
units, developers are eying other existing buildings downtown that have great potential as
residential sites. |
