BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME


That’s what all of us in the Nashville Hospitality Community believe will happen when the new MUSIC CITY CENTER opens in 2013! Gary and several other leaders in the Nashville hospitality industry and business community were treated to the first overview and tour of the facility’s construction site this week. Its going to be amazing! The tour was hosted by the Nashville CVB’s Terry Clement, and featured a project orientation and overview by Larry Atema, the MCC’s construction project manager. The $585 million project is the largest construction project ever in Tennessee. Atema explained many of the unique features of the facility, including the Center’s 15-acre “green” roof and cutting edge glass curtain wall exterior. Watch for more news as construction moves forward...with Gaylord Opryland and the new Music City Center, Nashville is going to secure its legacy as THE place for meetings and conventions in the very near future!
