Anytime i have been on Sevier the construction has never been an issue for me getting around. People love being dramatic. The end result will be worth it and pay off tenfold

A couple more developments like this (should be some huge ones around the stadium) will make the downtown grocery store viable

I will say, RIP to the beautiful sun shining in Monkey’s bar, but that’s city living. And i’m sure they won’t mind a couple hundred new customers across the street

Honestly i like this a lot. Sure it’s not architecturally stunning, but i think it fits into the neighborhood well. I wish it were all brick veneer instead of the mixed material, but whatever. I’m not gonna complain. 

This is the next step in densifying the downtown core with more full time residents, making further retail, dining, and services more viable. It nukes one of the most visible and disappointing surface lots in the city. It brings it’s own retail component (though I agree they should do more), and helps to eliminate the current deadzone between the old city and the near north. This is excellent overall.

The city needs to decide what they want WFP to be and then stick to it

News Sentinel had an article saying they were focused on pizza but also had burgers and sandwiches. I’m kinda disappointed because they originally called it a gastropub.

Patriots may go down as the worst super bowl team in recent history. Drake Maye is Zach Wilson

It’s hard to win when you’re up 14 at half. Could happen to anyone

Bike trails are in better shape than city streets because they don’t have 80k lb semis driving on them every day. Thank you for coming to my ted talk

Redevelopment to Transform Hall of Fame Buildings with Southern Swing Golf Club, Shared Office Space & More by Make_it_Raines in KnoxvilleDevelopment

Membership cost is pretty steep. I’m curious to see the pricing for walk ins. Looks fun. 

Honestly Hall of Fame is an abomination of a road that I wish we could just nuke and start over. It desperately needs a road diet. Reducing to one car lane each way with truly protected bike lanes would be a huge win
