The Metro Planning Commission has passed on consent a request for a historic preservation overlay district for a key segment of Midtown’s Elliston Place.
2200-2204 Elliston Place
Rendering: Giarratana, Goettsch
The vote was related to the efforts of Nashville-based development company Giarratana — which is planning a mixed-used tower to replace the Elliston Place structure housing Corner Bar. The company will now go before the Metro Board of Zoning Appeals to request a special exception from the height setback and height control plane requirements related to the proposed tower. The BZA will vote on the request on Thursday, Aug. 15.
