Try dining at the french cafe, Provence, for lunch, Bosco's for an upbeat dinner and a beer, Fido for coffee, Baskin-Robbins for ice cream, The sushi place for sushi, and Jackson's for other food and wine and fun

 

 

Historic Richland West End

 HISTORIC RICHLAND-WEST END

Get a glimpse of what thirty years of urban renewal activism can yield: a vibrant mini-community that celebrates sidewalks, landscaped common spaces, and a shared passion for preserving one of Nashville’s first original neighborhoods, started in 1905.    Listed in the National Register of Historic Places since April 16, 1979  

Richland-West End became a Neighborhood Conservation Zoning Overlay district in March 1996, amended July 1999. The area that would become the Richland-West End neighborhood is located on land that was once part of John Brown Craighead’s 200 acre estate. Craighead’s home, built c. 1811 with bricks fired on the site, still stands at 3710 Westbrook Avenue. In 1905, the Richland Realty Company purchased a large amount of acreage adjacent to Harding Pike (later West End Avenue) two miles outside of the city limits.

Examples of Colonial Revival, American Foursquare, Craftsman, Bungalow, and Tudor Revival homes are present in the neighborhood.

 

Sylvan Park

Sylvan Park is a small, community-oriented urban neighborhood, and hope you will discover the neighborly friendships that hearken back to days of yore, where life was simple, and neighbors were treated like family. 

When new residents of Sylvan Park are asked about why they want to live here, they almost always mention the sense of real neighborhood and community they have encountered in Sylvan Park.  From its beginnings as a 16-block area spreading south of Wyoming Avenue and stretching past Murphy Road southward in the early 1900s, the area has seen some ups and downs, but there can be no doubt that it has for some time, been experiencing a renaissance, with more house hunters and neighborhood retailers eager to call this area “Home Sweet Home.” 

The Sylvan Park Neighborhood Association (SPNA) is the collective community voice for addressing neighborhood issues such as zoning, security, beautification, traffic, metropolitan services, and environment. Meetings are held the second Monday of each month at 7pm in the Senior Renaissance Center of Cohn School, located at the corner of Park Avenue and 48th Avenue North.

 

Officially established in 1903 with a land auction, much of the area now called Sylvan Park actually had its roots in an earlier land auction administered by the Nashville Land Improvement Company in 1887, intended to create a new neighborhood in what was already known as West Nashville/Charlotte Park (also called “New Town”).  Though much of the property lay north of the Charlotte Turnpike, many of the most valuable properties in the first sale lie on the streets now known as Park and Elkins Avenues, anchored by Richland Park.  It was here that many of the most fashionable middle-class citizens of Nashville purchased property and built fabulous Victorian homes.  It is interesting to note that streets beginning at Park Avenue moving toward Murphy Road were originally “numbered” rather than “State” streets, by which they are now known.

Transportation was a significant factor in getting people and goods from the city center to these new West Nashville neighborhoods, so the trolley was a welcome addition to the existing passenger railway and the Charlotte turnpike.  The 1905 establishment of the Sylvan Park Street Railway (or “Sylvan Park Dinky,” as it was known) provided transportation between the main line on Charlotte and Nebraska Avenue, and was later extended to Colorado Avenue.

Through the years, the neighborhood has produced its share of prominent Nashvillians, including Congressman J. Percy Priest and Postmaster Lewis Moore, an airport (at what is now McCabe Golf Course), many significant churches, retail establishments, schools and, of course, the historic homes that contribute so much to the rich fabric of Sylvan Park’s history.   On almost every other corner in Sylvan Park was a neighborhood market.  Most of these markets have since been torn down and replaced with residential homes (such as 4500 Wyoming Avenue and 4310 Dakota Avenue).  Sylvan Park has experienced a resurgence in its business community, with the development of several new restaurants, markets, a dry cleaner, veterinarian clinic, laundromat, Little League field, flower shops, hair salons, and even a pet adoption center!  We hope you will learn to love Sylvan Park as much as we do,
