Oracle’s new River North development could bridge the gap between downtown + Germantown with its proposed pedestrian bridge, which got us wondering — what else in Nashville should be connected?

We want you to build your own pedestrian bridge. 🌉

What parts of Nashville would you love to be able to safely walk or bike to? Do you dream of starting your day off with coffee in the Gulch then walking over for a meeting downtown? Maybe you want to be able to walk your dog across the river to the Cumberland River Greenway, or maybe your commute to the office would be quicker if you could bypass the Bell Rd. + I-24 intersection.
