NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The Nashville Bridge Building was once an huge part of our cities history.
"This
building built Nashville. It was the center of every roadway bridge in
Nashville and went to make every barge in Tennessee." says the buildings
anchor tenant Nathaniel Beaver.
Eventually the bridge building
became run down. Nearly 20 years passed before the city bought it and
brought it up to codes. The anchor tenant is now in place and the public
finally gets to see what's inside!
"We offer a venue that allows you to be at a historic venue but new and modern." says Beaver.
The
owners say the growth of downtown and the new convention center were
their main reasons for wanting to build out the space. While they wanted
everything to be modern and up to date, it was just as important that
they preseve some of the original history.
"You can see the
historical stairwell that's been here 105 years" says Beaver. "The red
beams downstairs, you can see the steel workers footprints on them.
It's neat to be part of Nashville history and bring people in and let
them see what we've done" says Tabor Luckey, the event space co-owner.
Half
of the entire building is being occupied by the event space, owned by
Beaver and Luckey of Infinity Restaurant Group. Nearly 11-thousand
square feet in all, with numerous rooms available for events like
weddings and corporate parties.
The entire event space is
impressive, but the owners say that no dout the most unique part,
whether your in the bathrom or out on the rooftop terrace, is the
unbelievable view of our city.
"It's such a unique spot. We are excited to get it up and running and let everyone see what we can do" says Luckey.

Tishomingo County voters OK beer, alcohol sales
May 22, 2013 23:38 GMT
IUKA, Miss. (AP) -- Tishomingo County is the latest Mississippi jurisdiction to legalize alcohol sales.
Voters approved the sale of liquor, wine and beer Tuesday, reports the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal (http://bit.ly/13JCcix).
It wasn't clear referendums would pass until affidavit ballots were counted Wednesday.
With more than half Tishomingo County's voters casting ballots, legalizing alcohol passed by 42 votes, while legalizing beer and light wine passed by 73. The county borders Alabama and Tennessee.
Lawmakers legalized liquor at a proposed resort at the county's Bay Springs Lake in 2010, but it wasn't built.
Greene County voters legalized beer sales last year, while Corinth, New Albany and Senatobia have legalized alcohol sales under a 2012 law that allows cities to hold votes.
Mississippi has 13 remaining counties that allow no beer or alcohol sales.
