It is no secret that Dickerson Pike is looking forward to significant development in an unprecedented way. Dickerson properties that were sold for next to nothing a decade ago are now selling for nearly a million dollars an acre or even higher in some cases as more and more developers seek affordable land within the Nashville urban core. As money continues to be invested into Dickerson Pike, the city is doing well to plan ahead to make sure that gentrification does not negatively impact the current residents of the surrounding neighborhood.
