Music City Center’s First Quarter Brings Significant Economic Impact

Nashville’s Music City Center

Since opening its doors in May, Nashville’s $585 million, 1.2-million-square-foot Music City Center has generated a $26.4 million economic impact. In the Music City Center’s first quarter of operation, the space has hosted more than 100 events and more than 18,000 hotel room nights, according to tvsdesign.

Music City Center was created by architecture firms tvsdesign, Tuck Hinton Architects and Moody Nolan, as well as the construction team of Bell/Clark/Harmony, and the Nashville mayor’s office.

“There was a lot of care taken to create a place that reflects the best features of the city and brings them down to the human scale,” said Kevin Gordon, principal with tvsdesign. “We’ve designed convention centers all over the world, including three of China’s largest convention centers and four of the five most popular U.S. convention centers. There really isn’t anything else like Music City Center in the world.”
