The [[Sommet Center]] (formerly Nashville Arena and Gaylord Entertainment Center) was built as both a large concert facility and as an enticement to lure either a [[National Basketball Association]] or [[National Hockey League]] (NHL) sports franchise. This was accomplished in 1997 when Nashville was awarded an NHL expansion team which was subsequently named the [[Nashville Predators]]. [[LP Field]] (formerly Adelphia Coliseum) was built after the [[National Football League]]'s (NFL) [[Houston Oilers]] agreed to move to the city in 1995. The NFL debuted in Nashville in 1998 at [[Vanderbilt University|Vanderbilt]] Stadium, and LP Field opened in the summer of 1999. The Oilers changed their name to the [[Tennessee Titans]] and saw a season culminate in the [[Music City Miracle]] and a close [[Super Bowl XXXIV|Super Bowl]] game.

Today the city along the [[Cumberland River]] is a crossroads of American culture, and easily the fastest-growing part of the [[Upper South]] and the territory between [[Atlanta]] and [[Texas]]. Currently, there are many plans of building multiple residential and business towers in the downtown area, including the [[Signature Tower]]. If constructed, this will be the tallest building in both [[Nashville]] and [[Tennessee]] surpassing the [[AT&T Building (Nashville)|AT&T Building]], and will also become the tallest building in the USA outside of [[New York]] and [[Chicago]], surpassing the Bank of America Plaza in [[Atlanta]].
