Smyrna, TN

Sewart's Landing is a roughly $400 million, 44-acre mixed-use development under construction at the corner of Sam Ridley Parkway West and Highway 41 (South Lowry Street) in Smyrna. It is being developed by Nashville-based Equitable Property Company in partnership with Chapman Capital, which acquired the 44 acres in early 2024 (announced February 7, 2024) and held a groundbreaking on June 10, 2024. Rutherford County approved a tax-increment financing (TIF) package of more than $26 million to support the project. The name pays tribute to Smyrna's historic former Sewart Air Force Base.

The master plan calls for roughly 280,000 square feet of street-level retail, up to 400,000 square feet of medical office space across two buildings, a 240-key hotel, and 268 multi-family residential units, organized around a pedestrian-focused street grid with greenspace and a walking trail. Sprouts Farmers Market is the announced grocery anchor, signing for a roughly 23,500-square-foot store with an anticipated opening in late 2026; other named tenants include Wawa, Starbucks, Jonathan's Grille, City BBQ, Keke's Breakfast Cafe, Hand & Stone, Encore Nails, and Scissors & Scotch. Leasing is led by JLL.

Smyrna's economic anchor remains the Nissan vehicle assembly plant, where Nissan reports having invested more than $8 billion over the plant's history. The Smyrna facility builds the Nissan Rogue, Murano and Pathfinder plus the INFINITI QX60, and began assembling the new INFINITI QX65 in 2026. Nissan has said its next-generation Rogue will be assembled in Smyrna beginning in spring 2027, with U.S. production of the Rogue's e-Power hybrid system planned for the plant later (reported for 2028). Separately, Hamilton Development began construction in 2026 on Cornerstone Business Park, a 152-acre, roughly 1.8 million-square-foot industrial park (12 buildings) off I-840 at 5481 W. Jefferson Pike, with the first Phase I building targeted to deliver in the first quarter of 2027.

For buyers relocating to Smyrna, these projects describe what the area is becoming: Sewart's Landing concentrates new retail, dining, medical office, a hotel and multi-family residential units along the Sam Ridley corridor, while the Nissan plant and the new Cornerstone industrial park reflect Smyrna's continuing role as a Middle Tennessee manufacturing and logistics hub about 25 miles southeast of downtown Nashville.
