For more than 70 years, the scrapyard has cast a long shadow over the promise of Nashville, its riverfront, and the East Bank. Generations of Nashvillians have looked across the site with the same quiet hope: someday, this place will be transformed.
The East Bend team, backed by dedicated local investors and leading experts, is poised to transform this long-neglected industrial zone into a vibrant, connected, family-oriented mixed-use urban neighborhood. A place that will finally bring transformative public realm, thoughtfully designed housing, neighborhood grocery stores, exciting entertainment options, and so much more.
At the heart of this vision is an unprecedented commitment to public improvement across the entire 47-acre site with dedicated public space. This includes a beautiful greenway along the Cumberland River, a sweeping park that stretches the full length of the district from its eastern border to the waterfront, and a lively activated promenade where community will thrive.
After unanimous approval at the Metro Planning Commission and at first and second Metro Council reading, your support heading into the third and final Metro Council vote on April 21st will help unlock a new, vibrant future for Nashvillians on the East Bank.
