Getting to know Paseo South Gulch

You’ve likely passed by this portion of the Gulch, but are you up to date with the SomeraRoad project? It’s ever-changing and new updates just dropped this week.

Keeping up with Nashville development can be a real crane in the neck sometimes. That said, it’s hard to miss all of the updates coming out of the city’s newest neighborhood, Paseo South Gulch. If you missed the recent block party introducing you to the vibrant area, let’s play a game of catch up.

Rewind a bit

For those unfamiliar with this slice of Nashville history, a portion of the project consists of two repurposed historic structures: the Voorhees and Antiques buildings. The Vorhees Building was initially constructed as a John Deere distribution center before housing heating and cooling business Bill Voorhees Co. The Downtown Antique Mall set up shop in the Antiques Building for nearly 30 years until its closure in 2019.

It’s a date

Believe it or not, there’s even more expansion on the horizon. Paseo South Gulch’s Hotel and Residences featuring 180 rooms and 146 for-sale units arrives in 2026, in addition to One Paseo, a mixed-use component offering nearly 4,000 sqft of office and retail space.

On the retail side of things, The Catbird Seat and The Patterson House will relocate to the Voorhees Building’s rooftop this summer. Maiz de la Vida, a popular food truck outside of East Nashville’s Chopper, is working on opening its brick-and-mortar + Malibu-based health store and eatery SunLife Organics is expanding to the area. Stay tuned for exact opening dates.
