How the New Tennessee Titans Stadium Development Came to Fruition
Major development projects require more than construction expertise. They demand coordination across government, real estate, finance and community stakeholders to bring a long-term vision to life. In this episode of "Real Estate Law Unlocked," real estate attorneys Jon Cooper (https://www.hklaw.com/en/professionals/c/cooper-jonathan) and Bo Campbell (https://www.hklaw.com/en/professionals/c/campbell-robert) join government relations attorney James Weaver (https://www.hklaw.com/en/professionals/w/weaver-james) to examine the legal, political and development realities behind the new Tennessee Titans Stadium project and the broader transformation of Nashville's East Bank. They describe their experience advising one of the players involved in the project and working with government partners and private stakeholders, sharing how plans for the stadium evolved from a renovation effort into a $2.2 billion public-private development. They also talk about the complexities of integrating a major sports venue with a mixed-use district and the strategies used to manage financing, infrastructure, zoning and government approvals while creating a new neighborhood for Nashville.

Inside New York City's Rent Stabilization System
Understanding New York City's rent stabilization system requires more than knowing the rules. It requires understanding the legislative history, policy shifts and economic pressures that continue to shape multifamily housing in the area. In this episode of Real Estate Law Unlocked, Partner Alex Lycoyannis (https://www.hklaw.com/en/professionals/l/lycoyannis-alexander) sits down with Christina Smyth, founding partner of Smyth Levenson LLP and former member of the New York City Rent Guidelines Board, to explore the evolution of rent stabilization from its origins in the 1960s to today. Ms. Smyth describes her tenure on the Rent Guidelines Board and points out key legislative milestones such as the Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019, along with the recent rent freeze and ongoing debate over housing affordability, property ownership and the future of New York City's rent-stabilized housing stock.

Florida Eminent Domain and How It Affects Real Estate Lawyers
Eminent domain in Florida moves fast, and trial lawyers who understand valuation, timing and statutory leverage can change the outcome for property owners and businesses. Real Estate attorney Alessandria San Roman (https://www.hklaw.com/en/professionals/s/san-roman-alessandria) speaks with Construction Litigation Partner Benjamin Robinson (https://www.hklaw.com/en/professionals/r/robinson-benjamin-j) about Florida's property owner-friendly eminent domain framework, the rise in condemnation activity tied to growth and infrastructure, and the practical steps lawyers should take when a client receives notice of a taking. Mr. Robinson describes an example of a situation involving eminent domain – a highway frontage taking that can leave a restaurant or gas station with reduced visibility, access and parking – then explains that business damages claims demand strong financial records, credible expert testimony and early coordination with experienced counsel. The broader lesson for legal professionals is clear: Effective advocacy in condemnation matters entails prompt case assessment, independent appraisal work and a multidisciplinary strategy as courts and agencies confront disputes over necessity, climate resilience, renewable energy and other fast-evolving public projects.
