                  [**Open The Gulch in Google Maps →**36.1520° N, 86.7894° W · ZIP 37203](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=36.152,-86.7894)
              
    
    
          
        

## Character

        

High-density, walkable, demographically young and affluent. The area has no historic housing stock; its architecture is entirely post-2000 glass and steel.

      
    
    
          
        

## History

        

The land was a CSX freight rail yard through the late 20th century. Nashville-based developer MarketStreet Enterprises led the brownfield redevelopment beginning in 2004, with the Whole Foods opening in 2009 as the neighborhood's commercial anchor.
