Join us for a family friendly community event to celebrate the groundbreaking and kickoff of the Eastpoint Neighborhood on the East Bank!
About this Event

Join The Fallon Company for a community-centric celebration as we break ground on Eastpoint - Nashville’s newest riverfront neighborhood. This event marks the official start of construction on a 30-acre, mixed-use district that transforms the East Bank from a landscape of surface parking into a vibrant, people-first community.

Eastpoint represents a return to the river and a reconnection for Nashville, prioritizing long-term affordability, family-supportive infrastructure, and meaningful public access to the Cumberland. Our vision begins with a commitment to locals; we are proud to partner with Elmington Capital to deliver Eastpoint’s first residential phase - an all-affordable building that will also house the neighborhood’s first childcare facility.
