SUMMARY:Spring 2010 - Four Transit Village Development Proposals in Greater Nashville
DESCRIPTION:Nashville TN -- On Friday\, April 30\, the Nashville Civic Design Center will host faculty and students from the University of Tennessee School of Architecture and Design as well as the Vanderbilt University Owen School of Management Real Estate Development Program. They will present to panels of invited experts proposals for four transit village developments in Greater Nashville. The sites (with presentation and discussion times in parentheses) are located in Donelson (10\:00 a.m. - 11\:30 p.m.)\, Madison Village (11\:30 a.m. - 1\:00 p.m.)\, Gallatin (2\:00 p.m. - 3\:30 p.m.) and Hendersonville (3\:30 p.m. - 5\:00 p.m.). Click here for a detailed schedule\, including guest reviewers.  [http\://www.sitemason.com/files/hX4RfW/NCDC_PR_TOD_ReviewSchedule.pdf]\nTransit villages are communities located within a 10-minute\, or half mile walk\, from a mass transit center. They are relatively compact\, incorporate mixed-uses\, mixed types and prices of housing\, and reduced parking requirements. The intent of transit-oriented development (TOD) is to produce a walkable\, pedestrian-friendly environment\, where the design of high quality public space is prioritized. \nThe virtues of a transit village include\: enhanced quality of life for residents\, increased economic development\, community character through the design of public space\, environmental sustainability\, improved public health due to residents walking rather than driving\, and increased transit rider-ship. The Urban Land Institute [http\://www.uli.org/] has observed that transit-oriented development is the one real estate type that has sustained its value during the recent real estate downturn.\nThe general public is welcome to attend.\nThis event is being held in cooperation with the Nashville Civic Design Center [http\://www.civicdesigncenter.org]\, Cumberland Region Tomorrow [http\://www.cumberlandregiontomorrow.org/]\, and the Nashville Area Metropolitan Planning Organization  [http\://www.nashvillempo.org/](MPO).\n
