Announcement: upcoming community meeting on Werthan development

David Kleinfelter, who once served as Metro Planning's land development manager, forwarded me the following announcement today regarding an open meeting with developers and architects to discuss plans for the Werthan Packaging Property. He says that his group has mailed this notice to 520 property owners in the area of the property on the east side of Rosa Parks Boulevard:

Community Meeting

Wednesday, October 3, 2012

6:00 PM

Morgan Park Community Center

411 Hume Street

Nashville, TN  37208

SWH Residential Partners has a contract to purchase the remaining industrial part of the Werthan Packaging, Inc. property at 1515 Fifth Avenue North.  You are invited to a community meeting to see our proposed concept for redeveloping the property with a mixture of residential and commercial uses.

Our architects, Smith Gee Studio, will show a proposed site plan and elevations and will be available to answer questions and hear your comments and concerns.  Council Lady Erica Gilmore will also be at the meeting. 

We are not asking for any rezoning of the property.

If you have questions about this meeting, please email dkleinfelter@renocavanaugh.com or call 615-866-2320.

I've already jotted down some initial thoughts on this development. I look forward to hearing more details at the community meeting.
