Creating Demand for City Living in Nashville - New York Times by bucy at 11:30 pm EDT, Jun 20, 2006
AS the frenzied pace of downtown residential development slows in major cities like New York and Chicago, some second- and third-tier markets are just now experiencing an upswing. Especially in cities, like Nashville, where no residential population had existed, people are suddenly hungry for an urban lifestyle and are willing to pay for it.

Birmingham is already like this -- they are building lofts as fast as they possibly can out of every old building in the city -- and Huntsville is trying with a new building concept called 301East(.com).
