I'd like to try to preserve the memory of Nashville's doomed buildings before they're wiped away by creative destruction and Google Streetview updates. Probably West-side centric but I'd love tips about structures slated for destruction all over town.

1226 16th Ave. S.
I mentioned the Note16 development yesterday but had totally forgotten that there was an existing structure on the property before construction started. Luckily it's still available on Google Street View (though you can't get a great look at it through the trees):
A pretty ugly 2-story brick structure. In the past this building was something called the "International English Institute" as well as the "Council on Community Service". Which are both pretty vague. I'm not sure when the building was built, probably late 60s or early 70s.

1724(?) 14th Ave. S.
I'm not entirely sure about the address on this one because the parcel has changed but I think it was originally 1724 14th Ave. S. Now it is 1300-1308 Wedgewood Ave. as the "Belmont Close Townhomes", a 5 unit project that was completed in spring 2013.
Now it looks like this:

This house was on sale for a little bit last year and appeared
to be in pretty bad shape. I walked past it recently and saw that it
had been knocked down and a large infill was under construction. The
property assessor website says the original house was built in 1930 and
sold in May, 2013 for $170,000.
