+  ParchMay Farm Center is an historic project in the storied history of
+  Nashville, a model of sustainable economic redevelopment right smack
+  dab in the middle of an old, castle-y looking former prison.  It's
+  about jobs, working with nature (and possibly ghosts, but heck, they
+  just add character, right?), fighting sprawl, paying homage to both
+  the prison-industrial complex and gated communities, celebrating the
+  underutilized west side of Briley Parkway, and just generally making
+  bank.  And helping out Nashville!  Did we mention that?  You thought
+  The Green Mile and The Last Castle were awesome?  Think about how many
+  movies are going to be filmed here now that we're going to build
+  corporate campuses, retail space, and housing on the old Tennessee
+  State Penitentiary site.

+  By a ratio of 10-to-1, office development over the last twenty years
+  has chosen non-downtown locations, especially those offering large,
+  campus / prison-style options.  If Nashville-Davidson County wants to

+%p Developers are often required to make the land fit the project, but ParchMay Farm Center is designed to fit the land (and the large former prison at the center of the site).  ParchMay Farm will be nestled among rolling hills and buffered streams, avoiding steep slopes and preserving the banks of the Cumberland River for agricultural / escape purposes.

+            %li Convenient access to underutilized Briley Parkway
+            %li John C. Tune airport within walking distance

+            %li Undisclosed number of bridges not necessarily required
+            %li Site of filming of several major motion pictures
+
+          %p ParchMay Farm Center is what we like to call a 21st century realization of the 19th century vision of corrective incarceration.  What better place to arrest corporate flight than a place that stopped criminal flight for nearly 100 years?  ParchMay Farm Center: we've got Nashville's smart growth all locked up.
