CITY AWARDS CHUBB'S FOR EXTREME RENOVATION OF HISTORIC BUILDING
Instead of hiring painters, Holloway invited his laid-off employees to come back to work. Employees that normally would serve customers’ food and beverages, now picked up brushes and began the arduous task of painting thousands of individual bricks. “So we started so slap together reds and purples and mixing it together. We started randomly painting bricks, and it looked good. Then we tried a little section. One spot turned into a big spot. One wall turned into two walls, and the next thing you know the whole thing was painted one brick at a time.”

PROPOSED CHANGE IN ZONING FOR 'TRANSIT READY DEVELOPMENT'

WKRN - “This has been in the works for nearly 17 years when the landowner donated the land and the city and the state invested heavily in in Greenlea Blvd. And then plans for transient development came about 8 years ago,” said James Fenton the Executive Director of the Gallatin Economic Development Agency. “So really just to see this finally moving forward is just a really exciting time.”

The project’s vision is to create a “walkable village development that will capitalize on the future transit line, which will run from Gallatin to downtown Nashville.”
