Vanderbilt again
Or Memphis
current stadium sitting on land formely like 100+ small businesses.... amazingly the gov'ment owned courthouse was deemed to be fine but they wanted to take the gas station / convience store cause THAT had no usage - LOL
the whole process was obscene, but that is the game
I wonder if you could figure out a new way to make it transform into a baseball stadium too haha. Try to get us an MLB team!
This is exactly where it needs to be. That scrap yard is such an eye sore and it's right next to the interstate, so anyone passing by sees it. Build the new Nissan Dome there and when it's finished, bulldoze Nissan Stadium to create more parking.
It's also verrrrry medicore for league standards though - nothing about it wows you.
If they do go new; hoping its outdoors still ... not feeling the dome (even if that does help for a SB site).
Meh , even so that takes away from the river and city landscape feel - not feeling a dome covering everything.
I've not seen anything about how this will be paid for. As for the city buying the scrap yard.....this city is broke. There was a property tax increase for those in the city of something like 30% last year. All of those living outside of the city and Davidson County are all for it because the tax increases don't affect them.
I want all of this as much as everyone else, but I see lots of coming issues.....taxes, higher prices, more traffic in and out. Will PSL owners have to "re-buy" PSLs at a higher price? (This has happened in other places when a new stadium was built.)
This city has been mismanaged for years. We are the "it city" but we have terrible infrastructure and no money as well as the most ridiculous property and housing costs.

Nashville needs a lot more hotels and infrastructure to host a Super Bowl.
Let the new baseball team the 'Nashville Stars' play at the current Titans stadium after the Titans move? Or will it be torn down already?
The Vikings hosted a Superbowl and Minneapolis is smaller than Nashville by quite a bit (Nashville is the 20th largest in the US, Minneapolis is 45th). A new stadium would draw more hotels, and we've already hosted a draft with the entire NFL setting up here for a week, so it can be done.
think Denver had one of those... a section of stands moved and it became a basseball stadium
I agree that hotels aren't an issue in Nashville. Especially considering there is Franklin and Murfreesboro, which have grown to be more or less larger suburbs of Nashville.
Nashvegas adjacent aint suburb of Nashvegas
I have virtually zero contact with Nashville - in a year I doubt I roll in a dozen times

When I went to MTSU, I was in Nashville all the time. Even worked as a valet in Nashville on the weekends. Not like it's a long drive. 25-30 minutes to downtown unless traffic is really bad.
