- Visit Music City describes the Gulch as centered on 11th and 12th Avenues South, between Broadway and Division Street, about a mile (roughly a 20-minute walk) from Lower Broadway.
- Some Gulch buildings route rideshare pickups into their own garages: Metro's Downtown Code design review required one development to run rideshare inside the garage off 9th Avenue South instead of on the street. Follow the building's signs.
- Metro's Traffic & Parking Commission has reviewed a downtown rideshare program with 23 zones (proposed Thursday to Sunday, 5 PM to 4 AM, three minutes each). We could not confirm whether any of those zones are in the Gulch, so follow posted signs.
