Giarratana, who currently holds the record for the tallest building in Nashville, is embarking on 3 residential towers all adjacent to one another. Alcove, the featured development, has reached 12 of its 34 floors while Prime, its sister tower, is in the excavation and foundation phase. YMCA will also redevelop its facility into a Mixed-use residential tower and is set to become the tallest building in Tennessee. The picture below shows the relationship of the three Towers to on another.

Designed by Chicago based Goettsch Partners, the Alcove will offer a unique design and amenity experience for Nashville. The 356-unit Alcove is located on 900 Church Street and is situated on less than a half-acre. It is also one of the first zero-parking buildings of this scale in the Downtown core.


Additionally, Alcove is strategically located next to Nashville Yards, a new mixed-use District. Nashville Yards is home to Amazon’s two towers and will feature:
- 3.5 Million SF of Office Space
- 1,000 Residential Units
- 400,000 SF of Retail & Entertainment
- 1,100 Hotel Rooms
Below is a sample of projects surrounding the Alcove and the development rundown:

The Alcove will also feature common areas along the vertical face of the building. This is achieved by adding soaring amenity decks which capitalizes on the cantilevered design. The amenity decks are located on levels 4, 11, 17, & 20.

The roof top will feature breathtaking views of Nashville and a unique amenity experience. The pool deck will feature two pools that will sit 416 feet above the Nashville streetscape. There is an infinity pool on the West face of the building and a large pool in the center. Inside, the roof top will feature:
