Located in Nashville, Tennessee, this apartment community was envisioned with a clear goal: to create a one-stop destination where residents have everything they need without ever having to leave the property. The experience begins with a self-playing baby grand piano as the central feature, setting a welcoming tone and seamlessly connecting to the adjoining coffee shop. Expansive banquette seating doubles as a striking design element and a practical space for waiting on rides or catching up on emails. Leasing is positioned above on a mezzanine, accessed by a staircase that flows naturally into the banquette seating below.
The seventh floor is dedicated to wellness, offering a comprehensive fitness suite with state-of-the-art equipment, a yoga studio, and a restorative spa area featuring three cold plunge tubs and three infrared saunas. Select residences on this level are designed as hotel-style units, further supporting the transient and flexible lifestyle of the community’s demographic.
The twenty-second floor is the crown jewel of amenities, carefully transitioning from serene retreats to lively social spaces. An inviting coffee bar greets residents at the entrance, paired with a private dining room ideal for intimate gatherings. At the heart of the floor, the clubroom bar serves as a vibrant focal point – equally suited for casual coffee service or evening cocktails – while the adjacent speakeasy stage provides a venue for live music. A thoughtfully planned coworking lounge offers both open and enclosed areas, balancing accessibility with privacy. Rounding out the offerings, residents can enjoy recreational amenities including a golf simulator and duckpin bowling before stepping outdoors to pickleball courts and open-air social spaces.
