    LAND RENEWAL PLUS PEOPLE RENEWAL: URBAN RENEWAL, ADULT BUSINESSES, AND PUBLIC HEALTH IN NASHVILLE by LEISHA RAYELLE MEADE (Under the Direction of Bethany Moreton) ABSTRACT The urban landscape of Nashville, Tennessee dramatically changed in the twentieth century. The efforts of politicians to increase tourism revenue altered the culture and economy of downtown Nashville. Under a consolidated government, local officials used the first Congressional funded urban renewal program and, later, public health policy to oust legal adult businesses. The downtown areas that were once home to pornography stores, adult theaters, and strip clubs were transformed in the push for a more family-friendly environment anchored by the rise of country music. INDEX WORDS: urban renewal, public health, pornography, landscape, Nashville, adult capitalism LAND RENEWAL PLUS PEOPLE RENEWAL: URBAN RENEWAL, ADULT BUSINESSES, AND PUBLIC HEALTH IN NASHVILLE by LEISHA RAYELLE MEADE Bachelor of Arts, University of the South: Sewanee, 2010 A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The University of Georgia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS ATHENS, GEORGIA 2013 © 2013 Leisha Rayelle Meade All Rights Reserved LAND RENEWAL PLUS PEOPLE RENEWAL: URBAN RENEWAL, ADULT BUSINESSES, AND PUBLIC HEALTH IN NASHVILLE by LEISHA RAYELLE MEADE Major Professor: Bethany Moreton Committee: Kathleen Clark Nan McMurry Electronic Version Approved: Maureen Grasso Dean of the Graduate School The University of Georgia May 2013 DEDICATION I dedicate this thesis to my wonderful fiancé, Travis Estep.

    DOWN AND OUT IN MUSIC CITY: THE URBAN STRUCTURATION OF HOMELESSNESS By Damian T. Williams Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in Sociology December, 2010 Nashville, Tennessee Approved: Professor Richard Lloyd Professor Brooke Ackerly Professor Daniel Cornfield Professor Larry Isaac Copyright © 2010 Damian Terry Williams To the love of my life, Helene Di Iorio, the sweetest person I have ever known and To Nashville’s unhoused men, there but good fortune go I iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many people have helped me complete this project. Among these are the members of my dissertation committee, who gave me the support, guidance and academic freedom necessary to develop an idiosyncratic and inchoate idea into an intelligible piece of sociological craftsmanship. Richard Lloyd, my dissertation chair, encouraged me to connect my local ethnographic observations to both historical and extra-local processes – his distinctive sociological imagination has profoundly shaped my work since we first crossed paths seven years ago in his seminars on “Contemporary Social Theory” and “Cities in a World Economy.” Intellectual craftsman par excellence, Professor Lloyd was a consistent source of sage conceptual and editorial advice. Ever a font of intellectual support, he continues to inspire me as I begin my career in the Windy City he so ably theorized in his first major piece of scholarship. Dan Cornfield provided consistently insightful and sharp critiques of what were at times ethereal chapter arguments. Moreover, his consistent votes of confidence were invaluable psychological buoys. Larry Isaac was a source of sagacious and candid advice since my second year of graduate studies.

    NVCR-4 Interviewee: Reverend Owen Campion Interviewer: Ben Houston Date: July 2, 2004 H: [I’m at the] Diocese headquarters of Nashville with Reverend Monsignor Campion. Thank you very much for meeting. C: Thank you. H: After an accidental run-in at Tennessee State Library and Archives. Why don’t we start with when you born, sir? C: I was born in Nashville, April 24, 1940. My parents were both native Nashvillians. They’re both now deceased. My father was third generation in Tennessee. Mother’s family were among the first families before statehood. I have a long history here. H: What did your folks do as an education? C: Dad was a CPA. He died very suddenly of a heart attack in 1961. Mother was a homemaker, as they said in those days. She died in 1974. H: How would you describe the Nashville of your youth growing up? C: From several points of view, one thing, I’ll take the city in general, and then I’ll take the Catholic community since you wanted to know something about the church. The city in general, as I come back now, in 2004, it’s almost impossible to believe that you’re in the same city. It has become so big. When I was starting high-school, the population would have been 175,000 to 200,000 at the most. Some of the institutions, of course, that are anchors still were anchors then; Vanderbilt University, Fisk University, Meharry Medical College. Some of the media, the Nashville Tennessean , was then the largest newspaper in terms of circulation of the morning newspaper in town [and] the second-largest in the state, the Memphis Commercial Appeal being larger.
