Where things stand

Updated October 2026

ACTIVE - THREE COMMITTEES WORKING

REIMAGINE Nolensville Road

Nolensville Pike is one of Nashville's first two All-Access Corridors. Since May, over 120 neighbors have met three times to set priorities for the rebuild — safety first, then walkability, transit, and support for the businesses already here. Three committees came out of the August meeting and are at work now.

CONTRACT SIGNED - DESIGN CONTINUES

I-24 Southeast Choice Lanes

The state signed its contract with DriveTN on September 30, so the project is moving from approval into design. TDOT has not set a construction start. Letters went to Glencliff homeowners over the summer, and the design is still under review — if you got one, you have not lost your house, and we are keeping a record of which streets are affected.

QUIET - NOTHING FILED

Density Questions

We are not opposed to more density. We're opposed to density decided without the input of the people who live here. Metro's new RN and RL zoning districts passed in December 2025, but nothing has been proposed under them in District 16 so far — and we're watching.

Who we are

16th United began in spring 2025, when District 16 residents gathered to talk about zoning and realized how little of the conversation included them. We are neighbors from Glencliff, Radnor, and Woodbine who show up — to Metro Council, to the Planning Department, to each other's meetings.

​

We are not a single-issue group and we are not against growth. We ask that it be done thoughtfully, with the people who live here at the table. When the Glencliff Road rezoning came up, Glencliff Neighbors chose to engage the developer rather than simply oppose — and the project came back smaller, with a pocket park, a turning lane, and a protected buffer.
