Historic Edgefield At A Glance

Historic Edgefield was Nashville’s first urban neighborhood to begin revitalization.
Historic Edgefield

From its development in the 1850′s, Edgefield remained an independent municipality until incorporation into the City of Nashville in 1880. Although over 600 structures were destroyed in the great East Nashville Fire of 1916, the neighborhood still boasts an eclectic mixture of antebellum buildings. An array of Victorian homes in many styles, Eastlake and post-Victorian Princess Anne cottages, Colonial Revival homes, American Foursquares and bungalows are found in Edgefield. The revitalization of this area has included construction of new single-family homes, zero-lot line townhomes and condominiums.

Edgefield is one of only two locally zoned “historic preservation districts” requiring that all new construction, additions, demolition, alterations and fences be approved by the Metro Historical Commission. Located just minutes from downtown, Edgefield extends from South Fifth Street to South Tenth Street between Woodland and Shelby Streets.

Neighborhood Meetings

Neighborhood meetings are held on the last Tuesday of the month at 7:00 pm at the East Park Community Center, 6th and Woodland Streets.

HEI Board meetings are always the Monday prior to the regular neighborhood meeting at 6:00 pm at the East Park Community Center, 6th and Woodland. All Edgefield members are invited to attend board meetings.  For specific meeting dates and times, please use the Calendar link on the left.
