Nashville Yards is going to be an exceptional place to live, and we can t wait to welcome our first residents.
Rising above the city skyline, the buildings, which recently “topped out” and entered the final phase of construction, will offer diverse living spaces and private, on-site parking. The spacious residences are marked by thoughtful design, spectacular downtown views, and a variety of high-end amenities, including custom kitchen cabinetry, top-of-the-line kitchen appliances, dine-in islands, spa-grade bathrooms, customizable closets, SONOS sound systems, and wine refrigerators.
The two residential buildings will also offer a variety of luxury features, including a shared third floor amenity deck with a pool, fitness center, game room, resident bar, co-working space, and golf simulator. The Everett s 33rd floor and The Emory s 34th floor will offer their own Sky Lounge complete with a rooftop dog park, additional coworking space and catering kitchen for events.

Residents will also be able to enjoy the more than seven acres of open plazas, courtyards, and green spaces planned at Nashville Yards, including the Ascension Saint Thomas Landing. Nearby wellness offerings include Orange Theory, which is located next to Crisp & Green in the base of Amazon Tower 1, and Iconix Fitness, a high-end wellness and recovery focused fitness club slated to open at Nashville Yards in summer 2025.
