The Motley

The Motley is a transformative three-tower development reshaping a full city block in Midtown Nashville. Designed by Hastings and developed in partnership with IPB Properties, Ojas Partners, and Axiom Builders, the project reimagines a former industrial site into a vibrant, walkable community centered around connection, mobility, and design integrity. CSDG is proud to provide civil engineering services for this landmark development.

The first phase delivers a 26-story residential tower with 326 high-end rental homes, over 14,000 SF of ground-floor retail, and 27,000 SF of top-tier amenities—including a multi-level coworking hub, fitness center overlooking the central plaza, indoor/outdoor dog run, golf simulator, and an elevated pool deck. Parking is integrated within a four-story, below-grade structure, allowing continuous above-grade activation and a more engaging streetscape.

At full buildout, The Motley will include three towers with up to 1,350 residential units—or a mix of 1,150 residences and 200 hotel rooms—plus 75,000 SF of commercial space. Retail leasing is managed by Ojas Partners.

Beyond its scale, The Motley aims to bring identity and artistry to Church Street. During construction, three 20-foot-tall pillars at the site’s frontage will feature work from four artists, including Nashville’s own Maggie Sanger, celebrating the diverse communities the development seeks to foster.

With completion anticipated in December 2027, The Motley is already taking shape as a future-forward destination designed to elevate Midtown living.
