The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum is gearing up for a $40 million, 140,000-square-foot expansion, according to Exec. Dir. Kyle Young as reported in the Tennessean. Speaking to the Rotary Club of Nashville, Young said the plan, long on the institution's drawing board but still in its initial planning phase, is to double the current facility's size."We really need to expand," Young said. "We know what happens when you don't do that. ... It's good business to want to build on success."
The hall moved downtown from Music Row in 2001 so it could have more space and attract more visitors. Its approximately 140,000-square-foot building cost about $37 million to build.
