The Arcade in downtown Nashville, Tennessee, United States, is a covered shopping arcade built in 1902 and modeled after an arcade in Italy. [2]

Developed by David C. Buntin and designed by the Edgefield and Nashville Manufacturing Company[3], the Arcade opened as Nashville's first shopping center, replacing the former Overton Alley. Located between Fourth and Fifth avenues, the entrances consist of identical Palladian facades.

The first Saturday of each month draws crowds for "Art at the Arcade", a gallery crawl sponsored by the art galleries on the second floor.[4]
