Williamson County is booming. Its housing market is standing out, too

Nashville takes up most of the oxygen when the conversation turns to growth in the Volunteer State. From the new Titans stadium and East Bank redevelopment to corporate investments and new restaurants, there is no shortage of projects keeping Tennessee’s capital in the spotlight. But the growth story extends well beyond Nashville. Surrounding counties continue to attract residents and investment, and Williamson County offers a clear example of how that growth is shaping both communities and the housing market. U.S. Census Bureau figures show Williamson County added more than 24,000 residents between 2020 and 2025. That growth brings demand for housing, businesses and places where people can gather. In Franklin, several projects illustrate how developers are responding while creating new reasons for people to visit and call the area home. The Factory at Franklin is one example. The historic former stove factory, now home to entertainment, restaurants and shopping, has plans for a 120-room boutique hotel as part of its expansion. In Cool Springs, Canteen on Carothers is bringing additional dining and retail options to the area, with Char among its announced restaurants. The development is designed around indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, adding another destination for residents and visitors.

The glaring gap in Justin Pearson's legislative work | Opinion

State Rep. Justin Pearson has become one of Tennessee’s most recognizable voices on free speech, protest and First Amendment rights. I agree with him on the importance of those rights. But I also think it's fair to ask whether that advocacy has translated into enough legislative action protecting civic participation and public comment for ordinary Tennesseans. Pearson recently went to federal court after he and others were barred from Memphis City Council meetings. His lawsuit challenged the council’s speech restrictions and meeting bans on First Amendment grounds. The Stanton Foundation First Amendment Clinic at Vanderbilt Law School filed the federal lawsuit on behalf of Pearson and other Memphis residents. That's an important resource. But most Memphians don't have a team of First Amendment lawyers standing by when they run into trouble trying to participate in government. That's why what happens in Nashville matters. Where are the public-participation bills? After reviewing Pearson's legislative sponsorship record, I have not found a bill principally captioned "Open Meetings" or "Public Records" that he sponsored, nor have I identified him as a co-sponsor of a general Tennessee Public Records Act or Tennessee Open Meetings Act reform measure. That doesn't mean Pearson opposes transparency or civic
