Mixed-use urban district Capitol View earned a gold award, the highest possible honor, at the 2021 ICSC Global Design and Development Awards, which recognizes outstanding achievement in the design and development of retail spaces and marketplaces worldwide.

“It is an honor for Capitol View to be recognized with this distinction. We sought to truly build community at Capitol View, to create a neighborhood that would blend with and enhance the surrounding area and serve the Nashville community,” said Mark Traylor, partner of Boyle Investment Company. “From the width of the sidewalks to retailer patios, to free parking and ease of access, Capitol View was designed with the user’s experience in mind.”

Capitol View brought the first full-service grocery store to downtown Nashville when Publix arrived in October 2019. The district also brought relief to the Gulch’s long-running park desert with Frankie Pierce Park and the Trolley Park green space, connecting the city’s greenway system and creating greater bike and pedestrian access.

“The hope is that, by adding this award to Capitol View’s list of honors, the work that is being done here inspires a focus on people-centric design that is both practical and exciting and that seamlessly blends with the history around it,” said Angelo Carusi, principal for Cooper Carry. “Capitol View’s winning this award shows a global recognition and appreciation for the work and intentionality that was put into this project, and we share that honor with every member of our team.”

Developed by Boyle, Northwood Ravin, and Northwestern Mutual, Capitol View is the product of a talented team of designers, architects, and engineers working together. Boyle developed the property alongside Northwood Ravin and Northwestern Mutual, while Cooper Carry executed the overall design and architecture of the structures. The Lighting Practice designed the lighting throughout the property, with Hoar Construction providing general contracting and Barge Design supplying the civil engineering needs. Kiser Vogrin was the architect for the landscaping, providing a more pleasing atmosphere for residents and visitors.

Boyle and Cooper Carry worked in tandem to incorporate elements that connect Capitol View to the buildings and communities that surround it. The use of brick complements the historic buildings nearby, and the original 100-year-old cobblestone was repurposed and incorporated as part of the pedestrian crosswalks. Capitol View’s design further offers a feeling of connectivity through its physical links to Nashville’s corporate offices and the greenway and parks system. The neighborhood also supplies its own green space for residents, office tenants, and visitors alike.

Since breaking ground in 2016, Capitol View has received several awards, including Green Globes ® certification, ULI Nashville’s Excellence in Development award, and the title of “Development of the Year” from NAIOP Nashville for the 1100 Charlotte Ave. mixed-use tower. Capitol View is home to numerous companies, retail, and restaurants, including HCA Healthcare, the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce, ProviderTrust, Healthstream, Tune, Entrekin & White Law, Publix, Central BBQ, L.A. Green, VSL Nail Salon, Rukus Cycling Studio, CareNow Urgent Care, Pinnacle Financial Partners, and Hampton Inn & Suites.

“It is an honor for Capitol View to be recognized with this distinction. We sought to truly build community at Capitol View, to create a neighborhood that would blend with and enhance the surrounding area and serve the Nashville community,” said Mark Traylor, partner of Boyle Investment Company. “From the width of the sidewalks to retailer patios, to free parking and ease of access, Capitol View was designed with the user’s experience in mind.”

Boyle Investment Company, Northwood Ravin, and BELL Construction celebrated the topping out of 5001 Aspen Grove Dr. at McEwen Northside on March 3rd, 2022.

The ceremony celebrated the successful and seamless completion of the structural phase of the building. Representatives from Boyle Nashville, Northwood Ravin, BELL, TMPartners, Kimley-Horn, and KVD Design attended.

“We are delighted to celebrate the topping-out of another building at McEwen Northside,” said Phil Fawcett, managing partner of Boyle. “Our vision is to create the premier mixed-use destination in Cool Springs. 5001 Aspen Grove Dr. is an integral part of this vision — adding state-of-the-art office space and more first-in-class restaurants and retail experiences to a lively walkable setting.”

The 45-acre, mixed-use environment at McEwen Northside, 5001 Aspen Grove Dr. will include approximately 126,000 square feet of Class A office space and over 26,000 square feet of specialty retail and restaurant space. There will also be a parking structure to accommodate the office, retail, restaurants, and adjacent hotel needs. The building is scheduled for a fourth-quarter 2022 completion.

“BELL Construction is honored to help deliver this building, which further establishes McEwen Northside as the epicenter for businesses in Williamson County,” said Eric Pyle, executive vice president for the commercial building division of BELL Construction. “We are proud to work alongside Boyle Investment Company and Northwood Ravin to deliver another Class A office building in one of the fastest-growing suburbs in the state.”

Additional growth is on the horizon for the district with two remaining blocks that will include Class A office space, retail and restaurant space, open green spaces, and other exciting uses.

Kimley-Horn, Gutterglove, and CorVel Corporation have secured their new office spaces at McEwen Northside, a 45-acre mixed-use district, developed by Boyle Investment Company and Northwood Ravin, in the heart of Cool Springs. All three businesses will be located at 4031 Aspen Grove Drive, anchored by Mitsubishi’s North American headquarters.

Kimley-Horn is a premier planning and design consulting firm that offers a full range of services at more than 100 offices across the U.S. The McEwen Northside space will be the fifth Kimley-Horn location in Tennessee and the first in Williamson County, joining offices in downtown Nashville, Memphis and Jackson. Kimley-Horn’s McEwen Northside office is set to open in spring of 2022 with 6,000 SF.

“McEwen Northside is the premier mixed-used development in Franklin, and this is only the beginning. We are very excited to continue building on the momentum and growing community excitement surrounding this development. I live in and have built the majority of my practice in the Franklin and Williamson County market – it means a lot to be able to plant a flag in Franklin and further expand Kimley-Horn’s ability to serve our clients in the southern parts of Middle Tennessee.”

– Ryan McMaster, senior associate at Kimley-Horn.

Gutterglove started as a gutter-cleaning service, and in 1996 the company expanded its business to develop unique designs and materials for self-installed and professional-grade gutter guards. The company relocated its corporate headquarters from California to McEwen Northside and is currently serving customers from its new 5,800 SF office.

“Choosing to relocate our corporate headquarters was a big decision, and we are confident we found the perfect location at McEwen Northside. In addition to the Class A office space, the walkable dining, shopping, restaurant and other amenities make it a great location for our employees to work and live.”

– Matt Smith, CEO of Gutterglove.

CorVel is a national provider of comprehensive risk-management solutions to employers, third-party administrators, insurance companies and government agencies. With offices located throughout the country, this is their first office in Tennessee, opening in January 2022 with 3,000 SF.

The addition of these tenants is the latest phase in the growth at McEwen Northside, and they join other McEwen Northside tenants including OMNIA Partners, Mitsubishi, Perry’s Steakhouse, North Italia, Jeni’s Ice Cream, Shake Shack and others.

ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT

McEwen Northside

McEwen Northside is an inviting urban experience in the vibrant Cool Springs area of Franklin, Tennessee. The unique 45-acre mixed-use environment will include approximately 750,000 square feet of Class A office space, 100,000 square feet of restaurants and specialty retail, a 150-room business-class hotel, 580 luxury apartments, and upwards of 10 acres of beautifully designed green spaces to seamlessly connect the community.

Clean Juice, Woodhouse Spa, and The Eastern Peak will round out our retail roster at Meridian, bringing the property to 100% leased. They will join the recently opened New Moon Yoga studio and fitness studio HOTWORX.

Clean Juice, slated for an early 2022 opening with 1,657 SF, comes from local residents Sean and Maylissa Ballance — their first Clean Juice franchise but the second to open in a Boyle property.

“We wanted to not only serve the community, but also build a community,” Sean Ballance said. “Our decision to open at Meridian was easy – it really picked us long before we picked it. In earlier parts of my career, I’d go on business trips where we’d stay at Meridian, and I’ve always been impressed with the development. It was a no-brainer to put down our roots here.”

Woodhouse at Meridian is expected to bring treatments beyond traditional spa offerings including antigravity chairs equipped with virtual reality gear, an infrared sauna and a plunge pool when it opens in March with 6,012 SF. This marks franchisee Kimberly Powell’s third Woodhouse locale, the others in South Carolina.

“I decided that I only wanted to open spas in cities that I was passionate about, and that was definitely the Nashville area,” Powell said. “We’re energized to return the Woodhouse brand to Franklin. It’s refreshing to have a partner like Boyle at Meridian who understands the value of a luxury spa in the development and wider community, where we can support all our patrons on their wellness journeys.”

The Eastern Peak is known for its Thai and sushi dishes that take on an American twist and combines a modern ambiance that is inspired by culture and art. The Meridian location is slated to open in the spring with 3,503 SF. This will be Eastern Peak’s sixth restaurant.

David Szemeredy, chief operating officer of The Eastern Peak at Meridian, said he decided to bring the business to this particular community because he always wanted to be in the Cool Springs area.

These new businesses join longtime Meridian tenants including Cajun Steamer, Tupelo Honey Café, Nutrishop, Peace Eyecare, Tony’s Eat & Drink, Meridian Dental Centre, Noodles & Company, Edward Jones, Fabulous Frocks Bridal, First Watch and more.

“We wanted to not only serve the community, but also build a community,” Sean Ballance said. “Our decision to open at Meridian was easy — it really picked us long before we picked it. In earlier parts of my career, I’d go on business trips where we’d stay at Meridian, and I’ve always been impressed with the development. It was a no-brainer to put down our roots here.”
