Since March 2022, 1030 Music Row has secured 90,000 square feet of leases between five tenants. 1030 Music row is located on Nashville’s historic Music Row, just one block away from Edgehill Village. JLL Executive Vice President Sarah Pettigrew handles leasing and marketing for the building on behalf of the owner, Panattoni Development Company, Inc.

Located at 1030 16th Ave. S., 1030 Music Row is one of the newest Class-A office opportunities to deliver this year in Nashville. The 112,000-square-foot building also marks the city’s first mass timber office building, and was thoughtfully designed by Tuck Hinton Architecture and constructed using douglas fir and sustainable materials. JLL has facilitated leases with the following tenants: Anchor Tenant Elmington Capital, an investment and advisory firm; Ampersand Studios, an upscale coworking operator; EnergyBox, a leading loT automation company; Henricksen, a full-service contract furniture dealership; and Encore Bank, a private, boutique bank that couples highly experienced bankers with innovative technology.

“1030 Music Row is a unique office opportunity located in one of Nashville’s most sought-after urban districts,” says JLL’s Pettigrew. “Offering one-of-a-kind design, 1030 Music Row successfully complements the creativity the neighborhood is already known for. The leasing momentum we have seen in just six months is a testament to unwavering tenant demand for vibrant, well-located workplaces, and reflects the ongoing flight-to-quality trend. We’re confident we will continue to see additional interest in the remaining vacancy at the building and are looking forward to welcoming another tenant to this dynamic office community.”

Strategically located along Music Row, the boutique office building provides direct access to Vanderbilt, Midtown, EdgeHill and Demonbreun Street, as well as a variety of restaurants, bars, shopping and housing options. In addition, the building is easily accessible, offering a five level covered parking garage, floor-to-ceiling glass, outdoor terraces on every level and on-site security in the lobby. The remaining vacancy has the potential to accommodate an additional 17,000 square feet on the fourth floor, with sweeping views of both Vanderbilt and Belmont University.

“1030 Music Row is the third Class-A office building we have developed in the Music Row neighborhood, and we know that this area continues to emerge as a top workplace destination for companies,” says Hayne Hamilton, Senior Development Manager at Panattoni Development Company. “Between an unbeatable location and inspiring office environment, we're confident JLL’s team will have the building 100% leased in no time.”

According to JLL Nashville’s Q3 Office Insight, last quarter’s strong leasing activity demonstrates the national flight-to-quality trend, with Class-A properties continuing to outperform buildings with fewer upgrades and amenities. Nearly 82% of Nashville's 3.1 million square feet of under-development office space is located in the urban core, illustrating the continued demand for urban and creative work environments. JLL predicts that with consistent deliveries planned over the next few years, the city is poised for additional growth in the post-pandemic economy.

“Developing a creative and sustainable building that provides opportunities for companies to grow their business, connect with fellow tenants and take advantage of great access to the surrounding area is a top priority for our firm,” said Whitfield Hamilton, Regional Director at Panattoni Development. “With the help of JLL, we’re confident we will continue to be successful in attracting top companies to 1030 Music Row and create a destination that businesses want to be a part of.”
