Nashville remains first in line to get a new federal courthouse, the Nashville Business Journal reports. Nashville has pursued a new courthouse for 22 years, when federal officials deemed the current courthouse at 801 Broadway inadequate because of security concerns. If built, the new U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee would cost $181.5 million, according to the latest government estimates. The site for the would-be courthouse is 719 Church St., next door to the Nashville Public Library.
