Downtown Nashville Parking since TA sold?

The closest truck stop would be exit 62 off I-24, there's a TA and Thornton's there. You better get there early. That's moreso Antioch, but it's still Davidson County/Metro Nashville. I'm not sure if they allow it still, but the Walmart on Charlotte Ave used to allow trucks to park there. There is. Speedway Murfreesboro Rd(US 41) I believe but very limited truck parking. You might can find hideouts in that part of Nashville but it isn't the safest part of town. It's rough in Nashville. You could probably park in Goodlettsville (north side of town off I-65) by the Associated Wholesale Grocers Warehouse. It's off Long Hollow Pike, and trucks park there when they deliver at that facility. If you turn off Long Hollow to go towards the warehouse, there is a gravel lot on your right. Trucks park overnight there, and many of them park on the street. The city's growth took away many of my hideouts. It is not very truck friendly city at all. As far as parking downtown, that's nonexistent now that the TA is gone. All of the parking will be on the outskirts. Maybe some of the other drivers have other suggestions that'll put you closer to downtown.

 

Don't forget about the Loves, a few miles up from where the TA used to be......

 

That Love's ain't exactly in the nicest neighborhood so beware.

 

Not to mention some of those spots really are a pain to get into.

 

Wow,,that TA was so handy,,what a shame it’s closed. Great area to call it a night for a day or two…

 

I remember it from the late 80's as being one of the best T/A's in the system; the restaurant was huge, and the layout was unique (obviously pre-dated T/A ownership). I used to stop at it any time I was going on I-40.

 

I was stopping there early ‘90’s…first time id encountered security patrolling a truck stop lot other than the TA? In New Orleans…

 

Wasn't a 76 that TA bought ?
