Soaking up every last drop of the summer sun at Pullman Gulch Union!

Hawkins Partners served as landscape architect for Pullman Gulch Union, a 29-story residential tower marking the gateway between Downtown Nashville and The Gulch. The amenity design spans two levels built for different rhythms of life: a sixth-floor terrace with pickleball courts, green space, and fire pits, and a rooftop sky club with a pool overlooking the downtown skyline. Add in a fitness center, co-working lounges, and a dog park and pet spa, and the landscape becomes everyday infrastructure, not just scenery.

Recently, Kim Hawkins was in Cool Springs and couldn't resist snapping a few photos at Park Place! What did she find? A Tuesday afternoon buzzing with activity — kids at the playground, friends gathering on the lawn, people finding their own favorite corner of the park to connect with nature and each other!

This is what you get when nearly 4 acres of underused green space gets a second life: A space that invites people in and gives them a reason to stay. Read more about our work on this project when you visit our website (link in bio)!

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Martha Ingram, a true visionary whose passion for the arts transformed communities and touched countless lives.

We had the immense honor and joy of working directly with Martha on two projects that were particularly close to her heart: the Schermerhorn Symphony Center here in Nashville and the Gaillard Center in her hometown of Charleston.

In every conversation and design review, Martha held a deep, unwavering belief in the power of beauty. She understood that a thoughtful, beautiful space shouldn’t be a luxury—it should be a welcoming place for everyone. She knew that beauty has the quiet power to uplift, unite, and positively impact all people who cross its path.

Thank you, Martha, for your extraordinary vision, your leadership, and for trusting us to help bring your dreams into the light. Your legacy will continue to bloom in the spaces you helped create for generations to come.

Happy 18 Years at Hawkins Partners, Will Marth!

Will has helped shape projects at Hawkins Partners with an eye toward community and environmental quality for over 18 years. His work encompasses large-scale urban design, green and complete streets, and rooftop projects, always rooted in a commitment to making the communities he’s working in more walkable, bikeable, and connected.

Beyond his work with Hawkins Partners, Will is deeply engaged with communities across Nashville — from his board role with the Lockeland Springs Neighborhood Association to his long-running mentorship with Preston Taylor Ministries and his involvement with Root Nashville, Tour de Nash, and YCAP.

Congratulations, Will, and thank you for 18 years of thoughtful design and community leadership. We're excited for what's ahead.

It’s shaping up to be a nice day for a walk through Frankie Pierce Park!

Named for Nashville native Frankie Pierce — suffragette, women's rights activist, and educator — this 2.15-acre park in Capitol View honors her legacy with a space built for everyday life. A playground, dog run, volleyball court, and walking paths sit alongside layered plantings of native trees, grasses, and evergreens.

History shows up in the details: steel beams from the Ingram Barge site form entrance arches, railroad stanchions echo the tracks next door, and Gulch limestone boulders double as seating.

Developed and maintained by Boyle Investment and Northwestern Mutual, Frankie Pierce Park is a great example of privately-owned public space done right.
