Cool Springs Office Space Development Update

It is no surprise that Nashville is currently one of the leading US cities for commercial development. With nearly every neighborhood in the greater Nashville area seeing exponential growth, local and out of state investors are taking advantage of the momentum.

As Nashville grows, the area continues to be the premier destination for upscale Cool Springs office space, with abundant class-A buildings, countless nearby amenities, and the convenience of I-65. Recent announcements include Peak 10 Inc., a tech company based in Charlotte that houses data centers,  moving in among multiple large-scale developments that are currently underway along Carothers Pkwy (which runs just East of I-65)  and includes the Ovation and Franklin Park projects. Ovation, an enormous undertaking being developed by Highwoods Properties (NYSE: HIW), is located at the Southeast intersection of Carothers and McEwen Drive with development plans of up to 1.4 million square feet of office space. Similarly, Franklin Park will house 1.25 million square feet of class-A office space on 71 acres of “smart mixed-use space,” just across the street from Ovation.

Altogether, these projects are injecting roughly $2 Billion of commerce in the area and will likely make waves in the corporate structure of Middle Tennessee as it continues to strengthen its growing reputation as a hub for technology and new businesses.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does TenantBase work?

TenantBase reverses the traditional commercial real estate model. Instead of spending weeks searching listings and contacting landlords, tenants share their requirements — location, size, budget, and timing — and TenantBase matches them with qualified local tenant-rep brokers and relevant market options.

What does a tenant-rep broker actually do?

Tenant-rep brokers provide market expertise, advocate exclusively for tenant interests, and manage the leasing process from start to finish — space selection, negotiations, and concessions — helping reduce risk and improve outcomes at no direct cost to the tenant in most U.S. markets.

What's the difference between a gross lease and a net lease?

In a gross lease, one all-in rent payment covers most building expenses. In a net lease, tenants pay base rent plus some combination of property taxes, insurance, and CAM charges on top. Those pass-throughs can add 30–100% above the face rate, so understanding the structure before you tour is critical.

Who are the Partner Broker Highlights?

Partner Broker Highlights feature trusted tenant-rep brokers in TenantBase's network — their background, market expertise, and approach to representing tenants. It's designed to help businesses find and vet the right local advisor before starting a search.

How does TenantBase help me find the right space for my business?

TenantBase combines technology with local tenant advisors to match searches based on headcount, growth plans, budget, and timing — streamlining discovery and helping teams lease space that fits their operational and financial goals.
