Quick answer: Gulch condo insights, building by building. Eighteen of these posts come from the 2009 to 2011 absorption cycle, when the Gulch was selling through its first developer inventory, plus current coverage of HOA fees and market activity. The named buildings here are the Icon in the Gulch and Terrazzo.
Gulch condo insights from Grant Hammond, in date order. The archive is deliberately split: a dense contemporaneous record of the original sell-through, then present-day entries. It is not continuous coverage of the years between, and the copy says so rather than implying otherwise. For current inventory see the Gulch.
What Gulch Condo Insights Include
Sales pace and remaining developer inventory during the absorption years, tower by tower. Record price per square foot when a building set one. Year-to-date sales counts for the Icon in the Gulch and Terrazzo. HOA fee movement in the current entries, which is where the Gulch now differs most from the rest of downtown Nashville.
Which Condo Buildings Are in the Gulch?
The two this archive documents in depth are the Icon in the Gulch and Terrazzo, which were the buildings carrying the district’s for-sale inventory through the absorption years and remain its largest condo addresses. The Gulch has since added further residential, much of it rental rather than for-sale, which matters because rental delivery changes the comparable set a condo owner is judged against without adding competing inventory they can be compared to directly. Anyone evaluating a Gulch unit should treat the building as the unit of analysis: fee load, parking allocation, floor and view separate two units far more reliably than the district name does. For the wider silo see the Nashville condos collection.
