The ramps are history, and an attractive rock wall façade frames a new entrance. You can drive into the mall parking lot through two
entrances, with each having a traffic light.
Yes, a new entrance drive and new traffic lights will smooth the entrance from
Thompson Lane.
Yes, at the Vanderbilt Health main entrance under the canopy. There will also be
golf cart service to ferry patients and families to and from their cars and
wheelchair assistance.
Faculty, staff, patients and visitors will all be able to park for free at One
Hundred Oaks. Free valet parking will also be offered for patients at a covered
entrance at the back of the mall.
Absolutely. Shuttles are planned to run at intervals throughout the operating
hours of One Hundred Oaks. Seven or eight shuttles will be running continuously
to and from the mall and multiple stops on the main campus.
Does this mean I can park my car at One Hundred Oaks and ride the shuttle to the
main campus every day?
No. Parking at the mall for Vanderbilt staff and faculty will be at the
southwest corner of the lot. In order to be a good neighbor to mall retailers,
Vanderbilt will actively discourage staff and faculty using mall parking unless
they work at the mall.
Oh, yeah. Exterior glass, stone and metal panels give it vastly improved
eye-appeal over the previously-sported outdated commercial look.
Vanderbilt Police will operate a precinct at the mall, and will have three
officers on duty at One Hundred Oaks 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Improved lighting in the parking lot, emergency telephones that connect to the
Vanderbilt Police, and closed circuit TV cameras at access points all
contribute to the security of the site.
There will be full service prescription service, as well as limited
over-the-counter retail selections. In addition, a pharmacist will be on site
for patient education and to answer questions.

Vanderbilt has decided to spell out the name of Vanderbilt Health at One Hundred Oaks as a way to indicate that the facility has
had a new beginning. This new beginning has a pedigree in history, as the
original name of the log house that formerly stood on the property was Hundred
Oaks (see story page 48).
Vanderbilt Health at One Hundred Oaks seeks to be a convenient, community-based
health and wellness facility. The fact that it is located in a well-known
Nashville landmark, with easy access, free parking and a pleasant atmosphere is
a great step forward in convenience for people who would like to come to
Vanderbilt for health care but are reluctant to come to the main campus.
Yes. http://www.vanderbilthealth.com/100 oaks/.
There will be open houses for Vanderbilt Employees on Feb. 17 and 18. Watch for
details to come.
