NASHVILLE, Tenn. ― Bridgestone Americas, Inc. officials recently celebrated the topping out of its new headquarters in downtown Nashville, Tennessee to mark the completion of the 30-floor structure. Joined by Nashville Mayor Megan Barry, Bridgestone Americas leaders also announced a new name for the headquarters, which will eventually house corporate staff and teammates from four core business units, as well as supporting functions. The new name, chosen by the company’s employees, is Bridgestone Tower.
The 514,000-square-foot, 30-story building was designed by architects Perkins+Will, developed by Highwoods Properties and constructed by Brasfield & Gorrie. It reflects best practices in workplace space and design, and is expected to be LEED certified at the Gold level. Upon completion, the facility will be among the largest and tallest corporate headquarters buildings in Nashville. Bridgestone Tower will further strengthen the thriving SoBro district with its neighbors the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Schermerhorn Symphony and the Bridgestone Arena.
