1st and Main

Mixed-Use Structure Built to Accommodate the River Flow

Working with longtime client, Chartwell Hospitality, we built the mixed-use 1st and Main structure to house restaurant, retail and Class A office space, and accommodate its floodway zoning.

Sited on two acres adjacent to the Harpeth River, 1st and Main was built on a micropile- foundation system which allows water to flow as needed across the property. The 131-space surface parking lot consists of permeable pavers.

Project highlights

1st and Main marks the northern gateway to historic, downtown Franklin, Tenn.
The first section of Franklin’s river path starts at our 1st and Main project and provides future connection to trails identified in the city’s greenways master plan.
An outdoor deck overlooking the Harpeth River provides exterior dining opportunities.
The building was designed to reflect the architecture of its historic neighborhood with luxury finishes and modern-day amenities.
