The energy footprint of buildings is directly connected to emissions. Metro is leading on LEED thanks to BL2019-1599, which strengthened green building standards. Now it’s time for Nashville to join LEED for cities.
Congratulations to the Top 10 States in #LEED! Ilinois ranked as the number 1 state with 87 LEED projects. View the complete ranking and learn about the states leading the way in green building and LEED. #Top10LEED bit.ly/32BIJYo

This is an amazing documentary by the @NashvillePEF - Great reminder of what a superhero Richard Dinkins has been for school kids in Nashville. Great work @katiecour and @DavidSEwing - thank you for telling this story. The picture of a young Judge Dinkins w/ MLK, Jr is priceless

We have big news today, y'all. The Ryman was ranked @Pollstar's #1 theatre in the WORLD by ticket sales this year. In a year that began with so much uncertainty, it's incredibly moving to see music return to the Mother Church in such a profound way. (1/3) 📸: @joshweichman
