Pinnacle Opens New Office in Downtown Nashville in the Capitol View Development

Pinnacle Financial Partners today opened the doors on its newest Middle Tennessee office at 425 11th Ave. North in the Capitol View development.

This is the firm’s 11th office in Nashville and third downtown, covering more than 4,500 square feet on the ground floor of the building anchored by HCA. It is conveniently located at the north end of the Gulch, just south of Germantown. Because of its proximity to Interstate 40/65, the office is accessible to large parts of North and West Nashville.

“As downtown grows and the urban core attracts more businesses and residents, this office will be in a prime position for convenient access,” said Larry Whisenant, a client services manager for Pinnacle in Nashville. “Our headquarters building was in on the ground floor of the redevelopment in SoBro, and now we’re here in the North Gulch as homes and offices spring up all around us. The team we’ve assembled here is ready to serve clients and attract the new business this opportunity affords.”

That team includes financial advisors for commercial banking, investment services and mortgage lending, in addition to service specialists for day-to-day banking needs. Financial advisors Kevin Roddey and Nancy Benskin have moved from Pinnacle’s Belle Meade and West End offices, respectively, to serve both business and personal clients. James Hundley, CFP® of Pinnacle Asset Management and Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. also came from the firm’s Belle Meade office, and mortgage advisor Kelly Weathers and client service specialist Connie Brawley moved from Green Hills. Raquel Beck will serve as the office leader.

“We’re ready to get to work,” Beck said. “This is a high level of talent, and we’re right in the middle of Nashville’s key areas of growth. I can’t imagine a better location or team to serve our clients.”

To complete the team, Pinnacle has added two new service specialists.

Tanesha Mundy brings 13 years’ experience to her new role. She comes most recently from First Tennessee, where she was an operations manager. Prior to that, she worked as a teller, client service representative and then teller coordinator for SunTrust.

Jennifer Miller comes to Pinnacle with 12 years of financial services experience. She also served as a teller, client service specialist and teller coordinator with SunTrust.

Pinnacle’s Capitol View location includes client service areas, five offices, two conference rooms and a Learning Center for meetings, workshops and use by community groups. Hastings Architecture Associates designed the office, and R.C. Mathews was the general contractor.

Pinnacle Financial Partners provides a full range of banking, investment, trust, mortgage and insurance products and services designed for businesses and their owners and individuals interested in a comprehensive relationship with their financial institution. The firm earned a place on Fortune’s 2017 list of the 100 Best Companies to Work For in the U.S., and American Banker recognized Pinnacle as the sixth-best bank to work for in 2017.

The firm began operations in a single location in downtown Nashville, TN in October 2000 and has since grown to approximately $21.8 billion in assets as of Sept. 30, 2017. As the second-largest bank holding company headquartered in Tennessee, Pinnacle operates in 11 primarily urban markets in Tennessee, the Carolinas and Virginia.
