BASIN ALLEY BUILDING
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE
This 1935 structure is located in Nashville's entertainment
district. The 38,000 square foot, 5-story industrial style
building was originally a hardware store and lends itself
well to the proposed adaptive reuse, with a retail entertainment
venue on the street level and a high-tech office function
on the upper floors. We worked with the local Rehabilitation
Committee and the local and State Historical Societies in
developing an acceptable design. The proposed exterior design
includes contextual replacement windows and graphic banner
scrims, allowing the original building to still be viewed.
In addition, a roof patio and "Imaginarium" above the roof
level, that met the historical groups' concerns have been
integrated. |
