Nashville<\/a>\u2019s redevelopment of its East Bank, a neighborhood abutting the Cumberland River, is coming together piece by piece.<\/p>\n

Part of the redevelopment is a new pedestrian bridge<\/a> that will span 863 feet across the Cumberland River from the East Bank to Germantown.<\/p>\n

Oracle Corporation is behind the project. The tech giant recently filed documents<\/a> with the Metro Planning Department for the bridge, and with them new visuals of it.<\/p>\n

A long list of architecture and engineering firms are behind the bridge. Foster + Partners<\/a> is leading the design alongside Hawkins Partners, Schlaich Bergermann Partner, Terracon, and Thomas & Hutton.<\/p>\n

Renderings accompanying the permit show the 16-foot-wide bridge\u2019s connections on the east and west banks of the river. Its construction will use a steel-mast supported system, a cable-supported deck, and a cast-in-place concrete deck.<\/p>\n

In visuals of the bridge\u2019s East Bank end, the pathway splits around a median. On the bank there will be a connection to Oracle\u2019s future headquarters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The pedestrian bridge is one of the first details to emerge about the project. Per local news reports, Oracle has purchased<\/a> many of the remaining parcels in the River North District to build the campus, however, no timeline for its ground breaking or completion<\/a> has been shared.<\/p>\n

On the west bank of the Cumberland River, walkers will descend off the pedestrian bridge into Germantown. Here, the riverfront will be further activated with a pavilion and restaurants.<\/p>\n

Construction on the bridge could start as early as this summer. A Metro Planning Department meeting on June 25 will review Oracle\u2019s final site plan for the bridge.<\/p>\n

Beyond entertainment venues the East Bank area is slated to be filled in with affordable housing, per a masterplan drafted by PerkinsEastman<\/a>, and a new headquarters for Oracle Corporation.<\/p>\n

Additionally, renderings of the forthcoming Tennessee Performing Arts Center<\/a> were recently shared and construction on the Titan\u2019s Nissan Stadium is progressing along<\/a> as the city hopes to host the 2030 Super Bowl<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nashville\u2019s redevelopment of its East Bank, a neighborhood abutting the Cumberland River, is coming together piece by piece.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":651016,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[56],"tags":[228,226,227,229,88],"class_list":["post-651015","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-arts-and-design","tag-arts","tag-arts-and-design","tag-artsanddesign","tag-design","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/651015","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=651015"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/651015\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/651016"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=651015"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=651015"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=651015"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
