STAHLMAN BUILDING,
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE
Constructed between 1906-1907, the Stahlman Building was Nashville's
second skyscraper. This 12-story Beaux Arts style building
housed a bank on the ground floor with offices on the upper
floors until the Summer of 2004. This redevelopment brings
a unique urban living opportunity to the heart of downtown
Nashville. The Metro Courthouse Plaza across the street provides
resident parking as well as a dynamic landscaped urban park
literally at the front door. Original features include high
ceilings within the residential units and corridors (many
exposing the original plaster detailing) and original
marble wainscoting in the corridors with exposed original
tile mosaics as borders. Many of the apartment entry doors
are restored crotch-mahogany with opaque glass sidelights
and original transoms. Units are open and airy with flexible
floor plans, exposed mechanical systems and modern light fixtures.
Kitchens feature black appliances with original marble wainscoting
used on some of the kitchen countertops. There are ample closets
and minimal room separation. Views to the Nashville skyline,
across the river to the Coliseum and East Nashville or across
the road to the renovated Courthouse Plaza make this a desirable
location for urban living. Awards |
