On the afternoon of March 22nd, 1916 ‘the fire of the century’ brought East Nashville to its knees. Destroying over 600 homes and businesses, leaving 3,000 people homeless. In the matter of a day, East Nashville went from prosperity, to wasteland. For years it seemed as if East Nashville was gone for good. However, a wave of new residents saw promise, and began renovating the historic neighborhood. Growth didn’t happen overnight, it’s taken years for East Nashville to rise from the ashes. 100 years after the great fire, East Nashville is back and better than ever. Now East Nashville is popular on a local and national scale, thanks in part to it’s character and a little help from a show called Nashville.
