SMYRNA, Tenn. (WTVF) — A new project in Smyrna will bring housing, retail, and business opportunities to an area that local leaders say will be huge for the city.
The groundbreaking ceremony for the development was yesterday at the corner of Sam Ridley Parkway and Highway 41. The new development will be called Sewart's Landing.
The plan includes 250,000 square feet of retail space, 75 town homes, a 240-room hotel and two medical office buildings. Developers have already secured tenants for the project’s first phase like Starbucks, Wawa, Jonathan’s Grille, a national grocer, among others.
This comes as Smyrna has been experiencing a lot of growth in recent years. Between 2021 and 2022 the population grew by almost three percent.
The town says there will be a community greenspace and a walking trail. We'll let you know about a timeline when we learn more.
You'll love her and you'll love to hate her! Meet Trashley: the bad girl of Nashville littering. She stars in a new campaign that's a throwback to an anti-litter movement from years past. Her role has been reimagined by NDOT as a fast-paced, Dukes of Hazzard-style wrecking ball of a lady. You'll find yourself cracking up as you meet the actress behind Trashley and hear how she landed the role of Queen of Trash.
