Put your thinking caps on, we're going the distance — a decade back in time. In the last 10 years, what's made you proud of Nashville?

Readers know pride in place is a NASHtoday pillar, so we were inspired to continue this Reddit discussion. As the thread shares, anything from a single person-interaction to something as big as a state-funded project goes. Just focus on moments where you've thought, "We really did that."

We'll go first

City Editor Skylar: Why look back a decade when we can talk about last week? We asked who we should be following on social media, and the post garnered 600+ comments shouting out local businesses, photographers, nonprofits, and more. Amid small business closures, it's refreshing to see followers discovering Nashville-based gems + the support from one account to another.

City Editor Dylan: Speaking of Nashville gems, our farmers market scene is something special. With new markets sprouting up all over the city in recent years, it’s easier than ever to connect with local farmers and enjoy fresh, seasonal produce. Not only has this growth allowed me to explore new areas of the city, they’re a reliable option for something to do after work or on the weekends.

Here's what a few Reddit users had to say:

"The way we came together to help each other after the tornadoes in 2020. We did it in 2010, we'll do it again."
"hubNashville. That is the smartest, most efficient hooking together of city services I have ever experienced."
"The library and all of the free services it offers."
"We have some awesome parks. Warner, Beaman, Shelby, Radnor, and Mill Creek, obviously, but the small ones and the programming they provide are fantastic."
"We are a good food city, and I forget that sometimes until I go to other places with little to no emphasis on the food scene."
