Music City Harley-Davidson Becomes Part of History
New Harley shop is historic Nashville’s newest tourist destination.
Like Harley-Davidson, the city of Nashville, Tennessee is living, breathing history – it’s Americana distilled into its purest form. From Hank Williams and Johnny Cash to today’s top country artists, Nashville is widely considered to be the birthplace of this uniquely American art form.
It has become a musical destination for performers and fans of all styles of music. This new Harley-Davidson dealership in the heart of Nashville, in historic Marathon Village, gives you one more reason to check out the sights the city has to offer.
Taking up residence in a former factory for a long-defunct car company, Boswell’s Music City Harley-Davidson has a great vintage industrial vibe that’s usually reserved for trendy clothing stores or hipster motorcycle cafes. Seeing this aesthetic scaled to a full-line Harley-Davidson dealership is simply impressive.
The Marathon District has long been a top tourist destination, and Music City Harley-Davidson has some very cool neighbors. Antique Archaeology – seen on TV’s American Pickers – are well-known as motorcycle enthusiasts, and there’s also the Jack Daniel’s Country Store as well as a winery and a comedy club. Given the city’s musical history, I’m sure they won’t mind a little extra noise.
This will be Boswell’s sixth Harley-Davidson store in Tennessee, and their second in Nashville. Their downtown store has been renamed Honky Tonk Harley-Davidson to avoid confusion with the new dealership.
Boswell’s has been selling Harley-Davidsons for almost seventy years, and will reopen the Honky Tonk Harley-Davidson dealership with a small museum filled with memorabilia collected throughout Boswell’s significant history with the brand.
For history buffs, music lovers, and Harley-Davidson aficionados, there’s no better destination than Nashville, Tennessee!
