Ask Nashville natives which is the trendiest of Nashville's trendy neighborhoods and they'll tell you -- it's the Gulch. The Gulch has it all -- an urban, walkable neighborhood filled with the hottest restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues around. But unlike other "it" neighborhoods, the Gulch adds a little something extra: it is the only LEED-certified green neighborhood in the South.
The Gulch is a historic district with an industrial background, so you'll find plenty of lofts in historic warehouses. You'll also find sleek, glass-encased high-rise apartment buildings in the Gulch. Home to jazz clubs, breweries, restaurants owned by celebrity chefs, and legendary bluegrass club Station Inn, the Gulch is Nashville's hottest destination.
The Gulch is cradled by I-40 and I-65 in south Nashville. It is separated from the Nashville Music City Center by 8th Avenue, and Vanderbilt University is about a mile from the Gulch, making the neighborhood very popular with students.
