As a teenager we used to "cruise" down Broadway, make a left on second ave and drive the loop again. Took about 10 minutes. Now you can't even get 3 blocks in 10 minutes down there.
This felt like actual time travel...very strange feeling. I kept expecting to see my 15-year-old self come rollerblading through the frame. I was especially excited to be reminded of Stone Mountain on West End...I remember buying hair dye and Smashing Pumpkins t-shirts there but couldn't quite remember where it was located
My man…Stone Mountain was the shit. It was next door to Tower Records in the upstairs unit of that White House where Papa Johns is now. Going in there in the late 90’s was a teenagers dream. Such good memories. Glad someone else appreciates the Stone. 👍
Oh my gosh, SO many memories!! I was a junior in high school in 1994 and my best friend and I used to just drive around the city all the time. Plus, we lived in Brentwood so you definitely captured our old stomping grounds. 😊 Oh how I miss the 90's... THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing!
thanks for providing this, even nashville native all my life but wasn’t alive yet in 94, this city has changed so much and it’s cool to see the changes i hadn’t seen

This puts into perspective just how much this city has changed in such a short time! Crazy to look downtown and see half as many skyscrapers and like no traffic. Also crazy that there was still that much farmland around Brentwood back then. I noticed the Batman Building, pretty sure that was completed that year.
7:53 My mom and I like to visit the Frist Center. I see that old train station every time we drive there. I guess this was before they converted the Frist from a post office to an art museum.
What a great time capsule. I started visiting Nashville in 94 and eventually moved here. You can tell there is a lot more traffic now. Thanks for sharing.
Love this video....it looked like Franklin Road back in the day....I remember living in downtown Franklin, could go to Brentwood via Franklin Rd. in about 12-15 minutes
The video was taken in late July or August of 1994. I may repost the video with all the music. I was not sure if by allowing the radio to play all of the music in the background...that I would be in copyright violation.
Wow, I moved here in 1996 and I'd forgotten how much less cluttered and claustrophobic is used to be. 70% of these streets are just rows of ugly condos now, they dig up all the trees and build the structures right up to the sidewalk ... no yards, no cool architecture, no character.
I use to live in Nashville, actually Antioch late 1992-1994. I use to work at a barber shop called Fresh Styles on Nolensville Rd between Harding Mall and Phono Lux Records with two other barbers name Keith & Rebo. I hung out Fountain Square, Club Oasis and another club called Mo Better's. Sometime at this bowling alley in east Nashville. Forgot the name of it. I miss those Krystal's burgers though. Krystal's & White Castle. Hickory Hollow Mall was tight. I stayed in the steets after finishing up at the barber shop. I had so many women i was seeing i couldn't keep up to get any sleep. Shout Out to Nashville, Tenn !!!!!!!!!
I dont think this was Nashville in 1994. The hardrock and wildhorse didnt come around until 1997 I believe and there were no trolleys around downtown in 94 because at that time downtown was basically a ghosttown minus printers alley.
The Wild Horse opened up June 1, 1994 and the Hard Rock opened that same month and year on the 21st. I was in the military at the time and heard all about in several letters.
Wish it was still 1994. Nashville was a better place then. Growth is out of control.

So very glad I found this vid! I got to Nashville a couple of years later in '96 so this landscape is a familiar one... Man! It's changed so much!!
back when we didn’t give a damn about Lower Broadway & spent our weekend nights cruising 2nd Ave. 💯
Hey 2nd used to be the spot
The nashville i grew up in and loved.
This was 4 years before I was born. I love seeing how my state and city was in those times. If only it could stay that way❤️
Crazy how quiet it is downtown! Things have changed so much in 25 years!
Nikkie Nikkie yea California people starting moving here
And not for the best
I remember this EXACTLY! Went to work with dad everyday during summer!
I moved here in 1983. This was a great reminder of what the traffic used to be like.

This is a really cool piece of history, it’s really interesting seeing how much Nashville has grown in 26 years.

I miss skating in brentwood. I was there on the night it opened. It was awesome

Yep, a LOT more traffic! Seems like lots of people had the same idea as you....
You are welcome. We came here in 1993...and I agree its not sleepy any more. I miss some things for sure.

Completely unrecognizable, I graduate from BHS in 2023 and this place definitely has changed in 30 years
I used to go to that Tower Records all the time!
I woke up thinking "Is there some way I can feel 100 years old today?" Thanks.......
I got married in the Music Row Wedding Chapel on 16th avenue.. it's been torn down and is either a parking structure or office building now
Tower Records!
remember opryland park in nashville on briley pkway
i remember tower records music store
Love this video....it looked like Franklin Road back in the day....I remember living in downtown Franklin, could go to Brentwood via Franklin Rd. in about 12-15 minutes
I bet it was much cheaper to live back then I was barely a year old then so I wouldn't know
Nice video thanks
I REMEMBER THE VHS CAMCORDERS BACK THEN
16:07 The Iroquois Steeplechase on Old Hickory Blvd
Went to Steeplechase twice. Never saw a horse once 😂
I was born in 96 and its crazy seeing Nashville turn from a "small" town to a metro city in just a couple decades lol
Wow the freeway with only two cars passing
OMG I grew up on Dahlia. Sometimes I would walk home from Scales and beat the school bus!!
The shots around Belmont campus look very similar to when I showed up on campus in 1999. It's very different today.
This is crazy to see how much has changed since then
Everything look so different from what I see all the time which makes sense when your born 11 years after the video was taken
Wow.....look at broadway/west end!
Very cool.
Who remembers Mrs. Winters on west end
Where are all the bums and homeless folks at? Today in Nashville that is all you see on every corner.
Omg! Kenny Rogers and Eckerd Drug!!
Man, Nashville before the skyline was flooded with cranes
Its now a city i can barely recognize.
It's driving me nuts to figure out who is singing that song....Just a precious memory, i still hear her in my sleep. Do you happen to know?
Watch me Lorrie Morgan
i remember going to opryland in 1994 when i was 11
I really miss Opryland. when we moved here this was the best and our two girls really loved it.
I still remember the collective "WHAT?!" in my homeroom class when our teacher mentioned that Opryland was being shut down. 😮💨
Stone mountain!!!!
Great
Nice
I would love to know what time of day this was, and what time of year... it seems IMPOSSIBLY uncrowded!
A time before the implants arrived.....a time i only go to enjoy for a very short time.
