I have worked at Sambuca nearly 3 years, suffering through seemingly endless roadblocks and noisy construction.
There were months when everyday, during our 11-3 pm lunch hours, the whole building shook off and on as either the Velocity, Icon. or Terrazo construction teams blasted into the earth around us.
I have gotten so used to the constant noise, dust in the air, and construction vehicles blocking the street….I don’t even pay attention anymore.
Even though the hill where the Icon now stands used to be the best sledding hill (for tipsy Sambuca employees after work)…it is nice to see the Icon near completion and to hear about all of the great retail coming to the neighborhood.
I am very excited about the Urban Outfitters!
I know for a fact that IKEA in the gulch is simply a rumor…(100 oaks mall would be a brilliant place to house a Nashville IKEA location though.)
I do know for a fact that the ICON will also house a Mexican Restaurant that plans to be open lunch and dinner….the new owners eat lunch here often..

@ matt— stfu about Dallas.

@ Nashville– Hello, 100 Oaks is perfect for Ikea…except then traffic on 65 would continue to go south in more than one way.

City Hall needs to die a painful death. The floor is horrible and the acoustics are worse. Good riddance.

@matt – Upscale retail, not so much the vibe. The Gulch website uses those cities (along with Denver) as examples of what they’re aiming for.
And City Hall is going away.
