Number
$26 million. That’s the price to buy a 0.17-acre parking lot in SoBro. It’s part of a three-parcel site previously offered together but now listed individually after failing to sell via bidding. The listing tops last summer’s $16.25 million sale of a nearby Broadway lot. (Nashville Post)

I would like to add one more destination to the summer bucket list: Stardust Drive-In. You might remember when we made the 45-minute trip to Watertown last year just to experience its nostalgic charm for ourselves — and share it with you.
