Occupying the area between Greer Stadium in the north and the Tennessee State Fairgrounds in the south, South Nashville's Wedgewood-Houston area emerges as an up-and-coming cultural mecca nestled in the heart of downtown Nashville. We-Ho, as locals affectionately call the neighborhood, hosts a thriving art and music scene, with the Zeitgeist Gallery on Hagan hosting well-received exhibitions and Infinity Cat Recordings on Humphreys showcasing new and exciting musical acts. Cumberland Park and Riverfront Park give South Nashville residents plenty of green space and recreational opportunities in the city center, providing numerous trails and paths ideal for inhabitants of nearby apartments and lofts to use for their fitness routines. Gabby's Burgers and Fries serves high-quality American fare well-regarded by locals, and Bastion, an after-hours gathering spot, mixes excellent drinks with even better company.
