In a 9-0 vote, the Metro Planning Commission Thursday disapproved a downzoning request that would’ve blocked a planned 96-unit apartment project in Antioch for low-income residents. But a key sponsor of the effort to cancel the current planned unit development for the 7.84-acre property at Forest View Drive said she still plans to bring the matter to a public hearing before Metro Council. A crucial second reading vote is set for July 5.

NASHVILLE, TN — Built in 1981 by painstakingly relocating and reconstructing two Civil War era Kentucky log cabins, this Holt Road home has serious country music cred in addition to being cool in its own right. The double cabin was the home of singer-songwriters Rodney Crowell and Rosanne Cash – yes, that’s Johnny’s daughter – during their marriage in the 1980s. Since 1995, it’s been the home of Bob DiPiero, one of country music’s most successful songwriters, penning 15 No. 1 country hits including Shenandoah’s "The Church On The Cumberland Road," George Strait’s "Blue Clear Sky" and "Take Me As I Am" by Faith Hill. Until her divorce from DiPiero in 1998, it was also the home of country star Pam Tillis, daughter of Mel. DiPiero married high-powered music publisher Leslie Tomasino.
