We hope you enjoyed this tour!

Congratulations! You’ve finished the New South Nashville tour. As Nashville entered the twentieth century, it emerged as a prominent Southern center of industry, education, religion, and culture. Shifting from the river trade that boomed near Rutledge Hill to the commercial and passenger railroads—Nashville’s economy and population grew tremendously from 1865 to the early 1900s. Today, the legacy of change in the late nineteenth century can be seen in the many historic buildings that date to this era. We hope you’ve enjoyed seeing the sites—on Nashville Sites. Please visit us again to take additional thematic tours. This is Jim Hoobler, signing off.
