Nashville is known as the nation’s hub for coun­try music and cul­ture. As the cap­i­tal city of Ten­nessee, it has steadi­ly grown in pop­u­la­tion since the 1970s. The city’s lead­er­ship saw a need for more afford­able hous­ing oppor­tu­ni­ties in the boom­ing metro­plex, with a focus on more ener­gy-effi­cient homes to fur­ther address the cost of liv­ing.

With so many home­own­ers look­ing for ways to cut back on their busy lives and enjoy more qual­i­ty time with friends and fam­i­lies, the lock-and-leave home seems to be the per­fect solu­tion.

Trag­i­cal­ly, between 2000 and 2017 there were 894 wind and 1417 tor­na­do-relat­ed deaths. In 2017, 36 per­cent of the wind and 63 per­cent of the tor­na­do-relat­ed fatal­i­ties hap­pened either in a mobile or per­ma­nent home. A wind-resis­tant design is crit­i­cal to a home­’s integri­ty and a family’s safe­ty.

Fox Blocks has been mak­ing insu­lat­ed con­crete forms since 2005. Our par­ent com­pa­ny, Air­lite Plas­tics, was found­ed in 1946, and today, it is still a fam­i­ly owned busi­ness. Air­lite pro­duces plas­tic con­tain­ers and insu­lat­ed pack­ag­ing prod­ucts for a vari­ety of indus­tries, so we share knowl­edge of plas­tics inno­va­tion through­out the com­pa­ny.

For proven strength and per­for­mance, the Fox Blocks Series is the basis for suc­cess­ful foun­da­tions, walls and build­ings.

Con­struct­ed dur­ing one of the worst win­ters in over 30 years, hav­ing over 8′ of snow fall dur­ing the 12 weeks of Fox Blocks con­struc­tion.

With a com­bi­na­tion of high- tech build­ing mate­ri­als and stream­lined ener­gy renew­al sources, net zero ener­gy build­ings are per­fect exam­ples of the ​“waste not, want not” con­cept.

This build­ing is one of the first to offer afford­able hous­ing for both adults on the autism spec­trum and for those who are not on the spec­trum.
