Standard Assembly has welcomed its first residents in the popular Wedgewood-Houston neighborhood. The new mixed-use community is comprised of two newly constructed buildings and the adaptive reuse of an existing single-story shed structure. Located in the heart of Wedgewood Houston the development was announced in early 2019 and replaced a former truck center. Standard Assembly features 310 residential units, over 12,000 square feet of retail space, 11 live/work units and multiple gathering areas and amenities. The project is located on 715 Merritt Avenue.

In addition to the apartments located throughout the north and south buildings, the community features live/work units that are legally zoned for business and residential use and give residents the flexibility to make and sell their goods or host client meetings from the comfort of their homes. These units are equipped with polished concrete floors, 11-foot ceilings and private street-level entrances with individual addresses.
“Nashville’s current growth is unprecedented, and as developers, it’s important to remember the role that we play in creating authentic additions to a growing city. We’re excited to introduce quality, unique housing for new residents and locals as they move to or within the city.”

Standard Assembly’s connection with local businesses sets it apart from many other developments in Nashville. Standard Assembly is actively establishing new relationships with local companies in Wedgewood-Houston to drive support for its residents and the growing community. The project brings fresh opportunities through its five distinctive retail spaces and living alley. Mota Moda, a lifestyle brand centered around the Nashville motorcycle scene, functional fashion and arts, has already committed to occupy one of the adaptive reuse spaces.
The Standard Assembly team will fill the remaining retail spaces with business tenants who fit the creative spirit of the neighborhood, giving residents access to the best of Nashville steps away from their door and adding to the existing top-quality restaurants, shops and galleries which make Wedgewood-Houston unique.
“When designing and constructing a new community, we aim to seamlessly integrate with an area’s past while evolving the neighborhood’s future. Through our collaborations with local partners such as Moto Moda, Peck Design Associates, Manuel Zeitlin Architects, EOA Architects and Hardaway Construction, we’ve prioritized that objective and added value to this distinctive neighborhood.”
