We were in Franklin for a wedding this month, and visited the @FactoryFranklin. Coming from the retail world, this place feels too good to be true. It had every merch mix's dream... As I sat there eating lunch, I couldn't stop talking about how hard it would be to pull something like this off even with unlimited capital..

Stresses me out thinking about it, haha. 1929 Stove Factory turned retail oasis. To name a few... A local bakery An elevated local coffee roaster Multiple art galleries and studios Independent clothing boutiques Non-chain boutique fitness Food concepts in nearly every category,

Get a new phone and have the pleasure of all sorts of new passwords since I can’t remember them. Imagine scanning my face every day for years…. and not letting me into your app… wild this isn’t easier by now
