Paramount, a 65-story luxury residential tower, will become the tallest tower in Nashville once completed.

Stretching 750-feet into the sky, the skyscraper will be set on a parcel of approximately 12,000 sf on Nashville’s Church Street between Anne Dallas Dudley Boulevard and 6th Avenue. The tower will eclipse the city’s current tallest, AT&T Tower, by 137 feet.
