Nashville to become a "first tier city" according to the news- we are getting a Nordstroms!

[Wcross]

I am beyond disbelief, is THAT what it takes to be a "first tier city"? Good hospitals, good universities, good public schools? A vibrant economy, affordable housing, low crime rates? Screw all that nonsense, all you need is a Nordstroms department store.........

1. It was a big deal when my area got a Starbucks

Then it was an Apple store.

We're still waiting on a Costco!

2. Where at in Nashville?

5. That mall in green hills I think.

It just puzzled me that it took a Nordstroms to become a "first tier city".

7. Yea, the Titans didn't ratchet us up there?

:silly:

[Pithlet]

3. I know. That does seem like a sillly marker of a city's success. But, I'm excited.

:bounce: I've missed Nordstrom's since I moved from the east coast. I live in Memphis, but I visit Nashville frequently.

8. The mall at Green Hills.

I believe it will open in 2009 (early). Have fun!

4. Neener neener neener! We got ours last month!

So tiny, isolated Honolulu, without pro football, hockey, or even the Grand Ole Opry, beat Nashville into the first tier! BWAHAHAHAHA!!! :P

[Wcross]

6. You had us beat all along......

Honolulu vs Nashville? Come on now. Maybe it was Don Ho?

[Deja Q]

9. So Johnny Cash had nothing to do with it, not even his surname alone?

:wow:

10. That's it. I'm moving back to Nashville.

It's all I've been waiting for.... :headbang:
