9 JUL. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Wednesday, July 9, 2025.
We wake up today with temperatures starting in the low 70s and an expected high near 90 later this afternoon. Humidity hangs in the air, but skies should remain mostly clear, perfect for anyone headed downtown or out to one of our community events. We will see similar conditions tomorrow, so keep the sunscreen handy.
Our top story: a sense of uncertainty in city politics as Congressman Mark Green has resigned. The community is still waiting for details as the process for a special election unfolds. This comes as parents of a student slain at Antioch High School have sued Metro Nashville Public Schools and the city, alleging negligence after last year’s shooting. This case is reigniting conversations about student safety and the role of school security across Davidson County.
Meanwhile, Nashville’s reputation as a group travel and events destination remains strong. Hospitality experts say new hotel developments are still coming, even as visitation growth stabilizes. With roughly 3,000 new hotel rooms in the pipeline and big venues like the Autograph Collection by Marriott taking shape by the convention center, developers remain bullish on Music City’s future. The local job market keeps adjusting, especially in hospitality and tech, with ongoing opportunities despite a more balanced pace of growth reported by HVS Nashville.
In the music world, we are reminded again why Nashville is so special. Tonight, Dylan J takes the stage at The Lookout at Ole Red on Broadway starting at 4:30. However, we send our well-wishes to country legend Ray Stevens, whose July shows at the CabaRay Showroom have been canceled after he successfully underwent surgery following a mild heart attack. Fans are relieved to hear he is recovering well.
Sports fans, Nashville SC hosts D.C. United tonight at Geodis Park. The stakes are high as the team looks to build momentum in front of the home crowd. High school sports also made headlines with Metro’s students setting new records in English, math, and social studies on state assessments, signaling strong academic gains for our local schools.
Traffic-wise, while most major routes around Nashville are clear, drivers should keep an eye on I-75 south of town in Hamilton County. Tonight, road crews will be closing lanes overnight for bridge work near Hamilton Place Boulevard. If your summer plans have you traveling that way, expect some delays.
Our crime update reflects a busy post-holiday period. Murfreesboro Police arrested two more suspects in a string of drive-by incidents, and a fireworks assault near Portland left a young person injured, with police still looking for suspects. Metro officers also report making several BUI arrests during the July Fourth weekend on area waterways, reminding us to stay safe whether on the roads or rivers.
On the health front, TriStar hospitals are now using AI technology to speed up stroke detection and care, offering hope for even better patient outcomes across the region.
Before we go, a feel-good note: Tennessee’s own rescue crews have just returned from a two-week mission helping with flood recovery efforts in Texas. Their commitment is just one more reminder of our city’s strong community spirit.

8 JUL. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Tuesday, July eighth. We’re starting this morning with a look at breaking news and developing stories shaping our day.
Tennessee weather continues to play a big part in our routines. Heavy rain swept through yesterday, knocking out power for more than nine thousand people across Davidson County. Crews worked late into the night to get most neighborhoods back online, but a few pockets near Old Hickory Boulevard and Nolensville Pike are still waiting. Today, storms are expected to move out, leaving us with partly cloudy skies and highs in the upper eighties. Humidity will stick around, so be prepared for a hot afternoon if you’re out and about.
At Nashville International Airport, travelers are dealing with delays after a ground stop was lifted late last night. Expect wait times of over an hour for some flights throughout the morning. The good news for soccer fans and travelers alike, the brand new Nashville SC-themed restaurant called The Castle is opening its doors today inside Terminal D. It’s the first of its kind and offers live music, food, and a taste of GEODIS Park for anyone passing through. In sports news, our boys in gold are riding a fourteen match unbeaten streak, sitting in second place in the league. They’ll face D.C. United tomorrow night at home for a spot in the U.S. Open Cup semifinals, with another big test against Inter Miami and Lionel Messi coming up Saturday.
Turning to real estate and jobs, Nashville’s housing market is still moving fast. Median home prices are steady around five hundred thousand dollars, and several new mixed-use developments have been announced for East Nashville. Local job openings are climbing, particularly in healthcare and tech, as the city’s unemployment rate remains low, hovering just below three percent.
City Hall is buzzing this week as Metro Council debates a series of proposed changes to public parks security. Metro Parks Police are facing staff shortages as record summer crowds hit spots like Centennial Park and Shelby Bottoms. City leaders hope new hires and revised patrols will keep our green spaces both welcoming and safe.
Safety is a priority after a 10-year-old boy was tragically killed in a minibike crash with a gasoline tanker off Brick Church Pike. In other crime news, a second teen has been arrested in connection to the June shooting near Dickerson Pike that left two others dead. Police are asking anyone with information on a stabbing near the airport yesterday, which left one person hospitalized, to come forward. Meanwhile, Metro Police are stepping up patrols around TSU after a fatal crash involving a Cadillac on campus Monday night.
On the community front, local schools are celebrating after a pair of high school baseball teams from Bellevue and Donelson clinched regional titles. And in a feel-good story, a group of Nashvillians helped keep 911 lines clear during the busy July Fourth holiday, ensuring first responders could get to those in real need.
Looking ahead, don’t miss the annual Music City Hot Chicken Festival this Saturday at East Park or the free summer concert series downtown starting Friday night at Riverfront Park.

5 JUL. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Saturday, July 5th, 2025.
We’re waking up after what was one of the biggest Independence Day celebrations in the country. Downtown Nashville came alive last night with the annual Let Freedom Sing event. Massive crowds filled the streets to catch the fireworks show over the Cumberland, which was produced by Pyro Shows and set to a live performance from the Nashville Symphony. If you missed it, folks were calling it the best display in years, thanks to upgraded technology and a mix of new music and classic favorites. Crews are already hard at work this morning cleaning up Lower Broadway, but you can still catch some of the magic online if you check out last night’s feeds.
Looking outside, we’re dealing with a muggy start and a few lingering clouds. Forecasters are keeping an eye on possible afternoon thunderstorms, especially around the riverfront and neighborhoods north of Charlotte Avenue. If you’re headed out to enjoy a post-holiday Saturday, keep an umbrella handy and stay hydrated. Temps should climb into the mid-80s with humidity sticking around through the weekend.
City Hall news this morning focuses on public safety. Davidson County magistrates now have full access to real-time criminal record checks—a big move aimed at keeping repeat offenders off the streets and improving how bond decisions are made. This comes after several recent incidents, including the search for a man out on bond who’s accused in a Nashville homicide and reportedly removed his ankle monitor. Police are asking folks to stay vigilant in the Edgehill and Wedgewood-Houston areas.
In other safety news, police have made progress in the double homicide case on Charlotte Avenue, thanks to a recent DNA breakthrough. There’s also relief in the community as eight individuals were rescued from a forced labor case in Giles County, showing ongoing vigilance from law enforcement.
Shifting to health, TriStar Hospital is using new AI technology to accelerate stroke detection and treatment, helping doctors act faster and potentially save lives when every minute counts.
On the real estate front, mortgage rates have ticked down slightly, making it a bit easier for homebuyers in neighborhoods like East Nashville and The Nations, though inventory remains tight and maintenance costs are high. Job seekers are seeing steady openings in healthcare, hospitality, and tech, with several new eateries hiring along 12th Avenue South and a brand-new music venue opening its doors on 8th Avenue.
Nashville’s culture calendar is still buzzing. Tonight, The Ryman will host a tribute to classic country duets, while Centennial Park gears up for a weekend arts fair featuring local makers. Look for the Farmers’ Market tomorrow morning and don’t miss the family movie night at Sevier Park.
A quick shout-out to local schools: the Pearl-Cohn High track team just brought home a state title, and several Metro students were recognized for their volunteer work at last night’s citywide awards ceremony.
For a feel-good finish, let’s celebrate how neighbors in Germantown came together to repaint the community playground after last month’s storms, turning a setback into a joyful gathering for kids and families.

4 JUL. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Friday, July 4th, 2025.
We are waking up to excitement across Nashville as we get ready for Let Freedom Sing, the city’s biggest event of the summer and one of the nation’s largest Fourth of July celebrations. Downtown is buzzing with anticipation as crews finish preparations for today’s festivities. Country star Dierks Bentley takes the Jack Daniel’s Broadway Stage tonight at 8:05, leading up to the fireworks and drone show at 9:30. Expect music all day on multiple stages, with the Nashville Symphony closing out the evening as the fireworks light up the sky over the Cumberland River. The Family Fun Zone returns this year with inflatables and games, perfect for those here with kids. Streets around Broadway and Ascend Amphitheater are blocked to cars, so be ready for large crowds and limited parking downtown. Everyone’s reminded to follow safety rules and only bring approved items—backpacks and coolers need to stay home. Our emergency teams are fully staffed and ready, working closely from the field with police, fire, and EMS to make sure everyone stays safe. If you notice anything strange, reach out to the nearest officer or call 911 immediately. Parents, it’s a good idea to snap a photo of your kids when you arrive at the event, just in case you get separated in the crowds.
The weather today looks favorable for all these outdoor celebrations. We’re expecting partly cloudy skies, comfortable humidity, and highs around the mid-80s. There’s just a slight chance for a passing shower early this afternoon, but festivities should go on without disruption. Evening temperatures will stay pleasant for fireworks. Looking ahead, the weekend remains sunny and warm, ideal for exploring our many local events.
Elsewhere, there’s a real sense of renewal along Second Avenue as businesses there finally see relief after nearly five years of construction and reconstruction following the Christmas Day bombing. With most sidewalks open and main roads accessible again, today’s influx of visitors should give those local shops and restaurants a much-needed boost. The city expects visitor spending this weekend to break new records.
New business activity includes a handful of downtown shops reopening post-repairs, and in the Germantown area, a popular bakery announced plans to expand its space this summer. Meanwhile, Nashville’s Black Market is hosting a special event tomorrow at the Farmers Market on Rosa Parks Boulevard, featuring dozens of Black artists, creators, and a live show by the 69 Boyz. Next week brings a “Black N Love” mixer for singles, too.
In city hall news, council members continue to debate short-term rental policies, with new proposals aimed at balancing tourism needs with neighborhood peace. No final votes yet, but expect updates as discussions evolve this month.
For families, schools across Davidson County are on summer break, but our high school baseball team brought home the state championship trophy last week, and local students swept regional science fair honors.
On the safety front, Metro Police made several arrests overnight for illegal fireworks and one significant burglary on Gallatin Pike, where quick response led to the recovery of stolen property. Officers remind us all fireworks are illegal without a permit inside Davidson County, so let’s stick to the organized displays.
We round out today with a feel-good story—community volunteers rallied this week to build a new playground at Sevier Park, funded entirely by local donations and neighborhood support. Kids of all abilities will enjoy new, accessible swings and slides just in time for summer.
This has been Nashville Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

3 JUL. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Thursday, July 3rd, 2025.
We’re waking up to a warm start with temps already in the low seventies and heading toward a high near ninety-one. Expect a mix of sun and clouds with only a slight chance of an afternoon shower, so outdoor plans for today and tomorrow’s Fourth of July celebrations are looking pretty solid. If you are heading to the fireworks at Bicentennial Mall or walking the pedestrian bridge for river views, dress for summer heat and hydrate.
Breaking overnight, Metro Police arrested a woman after an hours-long, low-speed chase through Davidson County. She faces multiple charges after officers recovered a stolen vehicle. In related safety news, the department reports that the majority of guns stolen in July so far have come from unlocked vehicles. Please remember to secure your belongings and lock your cars, especially around Broadway and Midtown nightlife hotspots, where thefts have been highest this week.
At city hall, officials are navigating a potential insurance issue involving the Downtown Partnership. No final decisions yet, but city leaders warn this could impact both downtown event permits and certain city services if not resolved soon. We’ll be watching for updates, as this could ripple through everything from street festivals to parking access.
Big news in state policy: Tennessee’s new laws took effect July 1. Highlights include stricter rules for cell phone use in public schools, tougher penalties for harboring undocumented immigrants, and new measures around gun control. Our schools are already rolling out the new phone restrictions, so families should check what’s allowed before summer classes resume.
On the economic front, Nashville’s job market is holding steady, with about six thousand jobs currently open across healthcare, music, and hospitality. Real estate remains competitive, with median home prices hovering just under five hundred thousand. New apartments are coming soon near Charlotte Avenue and The Nations, confirming continued investment on the west side.
We’re also seeing new business activity this week. A handful of independent retailers and a new coffee spot are opening up in East Nashville, while a long-standing book shop in Hillsboro Village celebrates its thirtieth anniversary with weekend events. Meanwhile, foodies can look forward to the Music City Hot Chicken Festival coming up, and dozens of local restaurants are offering summer tasting menus as part of a citywide dining event running July 7 through 13.
In sports, our Nashville Sounds closed out their home stand last night with a big win, and local high school athletes are making news with a pair of state qualifiers in track and field from Hunters Lane High. On the cultural scene, artists and musicians continue to shine, with recent Pride events at Bicentennial Mall drawing record crowds and standout performances from both local and national acts.
And for our feel-good story, we want to highlight a longtime breakfast tradition that grew from a Big Brothers Big Sisters mentorship. DeAndre and Alex, who met through the program years ago, now celebrate their chosen family and the ripple effect of a supportive community every week over pancakes. Their story reminds us how small moments—and showing up for each other—can shape the course of our lives.

1 JUL. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Tuesday, July 1, 2025.
We start today with big changes that touch every corner of our city as 177 new Tennessee laws officially take effect this morning. Among them, a new rule targeting the harboring of undocumented immigrants now makes it a felony if someone is caught transporting or hiding immigrants for money. That law is controversial and already faces legal challenges, with advocates voicing concern for families and nonprofits while lawmakers say it only targets those profiting from the act. Another significant change for families is the launch of universal school vouchers, opening up new education options for many but sparking debate on oversight and transparency. Schools also face a new classroom ban on phones and internet devices unless required for lessons, aiming to limit distractions and improve focus for students across Davidson County.
From City Hall, Nashville is making headlines as a new law reshapes police oversight boards. Expect restructuring talks to dominate council meetings this week, with city leaders promising greater accountability while community groups push for independent review power.
Turning to weather, after a muggy start, we expect partly cloudy skies and highs in the upper 80s. A chance of light rain could affect outdoor plans, especially late afternoon. If you’re heading downtown for Independence Day setup or any of today’s events at Centennial Park, pack some water and maybe an umbrella just in case.
In breaking news overnight, Metro Police are investigating an armed robbery at a vape shop on Stewarts Ferry Pike. A 14-year-old has been charged in connection with the incident. In South Nashville, police are also looking into a fatal crash under investigation near Nolensville Pike and a juvenile reportedly injured in an apparent accidental shooting. If you see extra patrols in these neighborhoods, that’s why. On the safety front, a new law aims to crack down on fake rideshare drivers—a step to protect our city’s booming tourism.
Nashville’s housing market continues its steady climb, with just over 2,400 homes listed, median home prices hovering near $480,000, and a slight uptick in pending sales as summer buyers get moving. On the jobs front, the city reports nearly 1,000 new postings this week, especially in hospitality and healthcare, and local hiring events are scheduled at Nissan Stadium tomorrow.
We’re welcoming new faces in business too, with a trio of restaurants opening this week on 12th Avenue South, while a longtime hardware store on Charlotte Pike says goodbye after 48 years.
Fourth of July celebrations begin tonight with an early fireworks show at Riverfront Park and music from both local stars and national talent. The beloved Nashville Symphony will play a free outdoor concert tomorrow evening. For families, the Tennessee Aquarium just welcomed a star-spangled penguin chick for the holiday weekend, sure to delight kids heading to Chattanooga.
Area schools are already making us proud as several Metro high schoolers earned top awards at last weekend’s national STEM competition.
And before we go, a feel-good story: De’Andre and Alex, a Nashville pair brought together through Big Brothers Big Sisters years ago, are still meeting for breakfast every week. Their story is a beautiful reminder that chosen family and mentorship can make all the difference in a young person’s life.

28 JUN. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Saturday, June twenty-eighth, twenty twenty-five.
We wake up to another sizzling day in Nashville. The dangerous heat advisory is still in effect for Middle Tennessee and southern Kentucky, with temperatures expected to climb well into the upper nineties. Hydration and shade will be our best friends if we're heading outside, especially for those planning to take part in the weekend's big events.
Downtown is buzzing as the Nashville Pride Festival takes over Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park. After last night’s lively opening with Kim Petras and Estelle, today promises more than one hundred thirty-five performers across three stages, including 4 Non Blondes and Big Freedia. If you’re joining in, bring a refillable water bottle — organizers have plenty of refill stations to help us all beat the heat. Parking is limited, so ride-shares are encouraged. The festival runs rain or shine, so a quick check of the weather before heading out is wise.
On the city hall front, a major development is unfolding. The Tennessee Court of Appeals has revived the effort to cut Metro Council in half. If the ruling stands, Nashville’s forty-member council could shrink to twenty after the next election. This would mark the biggest change to our city’s government in decades and could reshape how our neighborhoods are represented.
The job market gets a quiet boost today as we mark Insurance Awareness Day. Tennessee now leads with more than three hundred forty thousand active licensed insurance professionals statewide. That’s a forty percent jump in just five years, and it means more local experts are here to help us manage risk and protect our families and businesses.
In real estate, new construction crews broke ground this week on Tennessee State University's ninety million dollar agriculture facility, bringing more job opportunities and long-term investment to the Jefferson Street area.
Now to crime and public safety. Police have made two arrests after an armed robbery near Murfreesboro Pike, with two teens taken into custody and stolen firearms recovered. Meanwhile, detectives are investigating a recent shooting with a possible narcotics connection that left a man critically injured. Officers also returned a suspect from Louisiana to face double murder charges in a case near Lincoya Bay and Percy Priest Lake. Metro Police have increased patrols in response to this week’s spikes in both violent and property crimes.
Looking ahead to community events, don’t miss the annual Craft Beer Fest hosted by the Predators Foundation this Saturday at Bridgestone Arena, or the Gotta Go Tour for kids featuring CoComelon, helping families with potty training at local libraries.
And in sports, Nashville SC is set to face DC United at Audi Field tonight after their last showdown ended in a draw at GEODIS Park. We’ll be watching Luis Barraza in goal, hoping for another strong performance.
For a heartwarming close, we celebrate a Spring Hill teacher who has won Tennessee History Teacher of the Year and now represents us at the national level. And over at the Opry, a special summer camp gave kids with Williams syndrome their moment to shine on stage.
This has been Nashville Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

27 JUN. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Friday, June 27, 2025.
We begin today with a heads-up for drivers. Major lane and ramp closures are happening on I-40 and I-24 near Murfreesboro Pike and mile marker 213. Crews are repairing a pothole-prone bridge, so expect detours and delays through Monday morning. Message boards are up, but if you’re heading toward the airport or downtown this weekend, give yourself extra time. And remember, our Move Over Law helps keep road crews safe—please slow down and pay attention in the work zones.
Our weather story today starts with another sweltering morning. The heat wave continues across Middle Tennessee, with highs reaching the low to mid 90s and humidity making it feel even hotter. There’s a slight chance of an afternoon thunderstorm, but don’t count on much relief. The Nashville Rescue Mission is urgently asking for bottled water donations as they work to help neighbors struggling in these dangerous temperatures. If you’re heading to an event, pack water and check on family or friends who might need assistance.
From City Hall, Nashville residents impacted by April’s storms can now apply for disaster sales tax relief, following an announcement from the Department of Revenue. Meanwhile, concerns remain high as Tennesseans on Medicaid wait to see the fate of certain benefits, as state lawmakers continue debating potential cuts.
In community development, Tennessee State University is celebrating a milestone after breaking ground on a 90 million dollar agriculture building complex. This promises to create jobs and expand opportunities for local students.
On the real estate front, Nashville’s housing market remains busy, though some local experts note a slight cooling off with higher interest rates. Listings across Davidson County have remained steady, hovering around 2,500 active properties, and the median home price sits just under 470,000.
Turning to new business, a beloved Murfreesboro bar is closing after 40 years as the owner retires, marking the end of an era for regulars. Meanwhile, look for pop-up events and sidewalk sales across neighborhoods as summer brings more foot traffic and local shopping.
Looking ahead to this weekend, Bridgestone Arena hosts a free NHL Draft Watch Party tonight. Doors open at 4 p.m. for Smashville Loyal members and 5:30 for the general public. There’ll be live music, food, kid-friendly competitions, and even a chance to meet Predators alumni—so bring the family for a night out in the heart of downtown. On the soccer field, Nashville SC looks to continue their strong season as they face D.C. United, sitting second in the Western Conference.
Crime reports from the past 24 hours include the arrest of two teens after an armed robbery and the recovery of stolen vehicles and firearms. In a separate incident, a 23-month-old girl survived a gunshot wound while sleeping in her crib—a sobering reminder of the need for community vigilance and support for our neighborhoods.
And finally, on a brighter note, a local balloon artist who once spent time in the NICU is now bringing joy to young patients with creative visits, showing that kindness and creativity can make a real difference.

26 JUN. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Thursday, June 26, 2025. We start today with a big legal development at City Hall. Nashville’s Metro Council may soon look very different. A Tennessee appeals court has revived the push to cut the council in half, meaning we could see only 20 representatives instead of the current 40 after the next election. This comes after a long legal fight between the state and our city over who should have more say in local governance. The reduction, if it stands, will impact how neighborhoods like East Nashville and The Nations are represented at the city level, and voices from both sides are already making themselves heard.
On to our breaking stories. In public safety, local officers made a high-profile arrest as a suspect wanted out of Madison County for 18 years was finally taken into custody right here in Nashville. Meanwhile, the investigation into April’s tragic double homicide near Percy Priest Lake has seen progress, with a man returned from Louisiana now charged in the case. There’s also somber news from Percy Priest Lake after the accidental drowning of a five-year-old boy. As always, we remind everyone to take extra care near the water, especially during these hot days.
Speaking of the weather, the heat wave continues across Davidson County. We’re looking at highs in the upper 90s today, with little cloud cover or relief from the sun. Outdoor workers, event organizers, and families should stay hydrated and avoid peak afternoon hours if possible. Early detection and precautions are key, especially with the increased risk of sunburn and skin cancer these days.
The job and real estate markets both show Nashville’s growth isn’t slowing down. There are now more than 3,200 new job listings posted across the city this week, especially in healthcare, hospitality, and tech. In real estate, the median home price just crossed $490,000, up eight percent from last year. New apartment complexes are popping up along Charlotte Avenue, and we’re also seeing popular restaurants expanding into Gallatin Pike, while a long-loved spot on Charlotte Pike is closing its doors.
Culturally, we’re turning up the volume tonight with the Nashville Pride Weekend kickoff at W Nashville Downtown, featuring live performances and drag acts. Pride events will continue through Sunday, drawing crowds to Broadway and the riverfront. For a good cause, there’s also a community blood drive today from noon to five at 640 Massman Drive—every donation can save a life.
Over in sports, our high school baseball teams wrapped their season with two local schools making it into the state finals, and the Nashville Sounds are back at First Horizon Park for a weekend home stand.
Finally, a feel-good story to round us out: A local balloon artist who was once a NICU baby is now volunteering at Vanderbilt Children’s, bringing smiles to kids who need it most.

24 JUN. 2025 · Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Tuesday, June 24.
We start our day with breaking news from city hall, where the Metropolitan Nashville Audit Committee is meeting this morning. City leaders are discussing the latest in public spending and oversight, with an eye on how tax dollars are being used as investments in downtown development continue at full steam. At the same time, the East Bank Development Authority is gathering to review key proposals that could shape the riverfront’s future, fueling new conversations about job opportunities and housing along the Cumberland.
Stepping outside, we’re met with the start of a hot and sunny day. Temperatures are already climbing toward the mid-90s, and we’re expecting a high near 94 this afternoon. If you’re planning any outdoor activities or attending community events, be sure to hydrate and take breaks in the shade. The rest of the week looks even hotter, with temps topping out near 98 on Wednesday.
In the job market, hospitality and healthcare continue to dominate local listings, with more than 2,000 openings citywide this week. Real estate remains just as lively, with approximately 350 new listings across Davidson County. Demand stays highest in neighborhoods like The Nations and East Nashville, where homes are moving quickly—often in under two weeks.
Downtown, we have some new business activity to share. A few local eateries have quietly opened their doors in the Gulch and on Broadway, offering new lunch and coffee options for those working in the city’s core. Meanwhile, a beloved family-owned bookstore near Belmont has sadly announced its closing after nearly thirty years, citing rising rents and shifting shopping habits.
Looking at our local cultural scene, Nashville is still buzzing from Saturday’s Black Music Month celebration at Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery. Hundreds came out to enjoy live performances, DJ sets, and community discussions about the city’s musical roots. And for music lovers, the Ryman and Ascend Amphitheater both have sold-out shows lined up this week, so expect extra downtown traffic tonight.
Turning to sports, our Nashville SC is riding high after their 2-0 shutout victory against the Chicago Fire. The team hits the road today to face the New England Revolution, hoping to stretch their winning streak and keep playoff hopes alive. Over at the high school level, congratulations go to the Pearl-Cohn Firebirds for taking home another state baseball title this weekend.
On the public safety front, Metro Police are investigating a serious motorcycle accident early this morning on Charlotte Avenue near 46th. No reports of life-threatening injuries at this time, but motorists should expect some delays in the area. There have been no major incidents or arrests reported in the past 24 hours, though authorities continue to remind everyone to lock cars and stay alert in busy parking lots.
Before we go, a feel-good story: De’Andre and Alex, who met through Big Brothers Big Sisters, are celebrating ten years of friendship with their weekly breakfast tradition. Their story reminds us that mentorship and kindness can shape lives well beyond childhood.
