Up-and-coming Wedgewood-Houston is a buzzing art hub, with former factories converted into art spaces and studios. Crowds fill galleries during the monthly “Art Crawl,” relax at cocktail bars or sample drinks in craft distilleries. The restored Fort Negley, a remnant of the Civil War, is surrounded by trees and paths, while the flea market at nearby Nashville Fairgrounds is packed with antiques and bric-a-brac.

Between the Gulch and Melrose is 8th Avenue South, home of many of Nashville’s most recognized names, including Zanies Comedy Club and Grimey’s New & Preloved Music. This neighborhood has long been a destination to see a show at Douglas Corner Cafe or to pick up a special furniture piece at 8th Avenue Antique Mall. But a lot of newcomers, such as Eighth and Roast and the Urban Juicer, are bringing fresh life to the neighborhood, making it a little more homey and inviting.
