Editing Brentwood, Tennessee (section)

===20th century to present===
In the 1930s, even during the Great Depression, Brentwood began to rebound. One by one, businessmen and merchants from Nashville bought the former plantation houses. They began to revive fox hunting on their estates and raise quality horses.

On April 15, 1969, Brentwood incorporated as a city. That same year the interstate was built through the area, ushering a new period of residential and commercial growth. It made commuting easier for people who worked in [[Nashville]] and wanted to live in newer housing. The Maryland Farms office complex was built a few years later on what was once an [[American Saddle Horse]] farm and race track. The Brentwood Derby was run there until the mid 1970s.

Development has continued as Nashville has expanded its economy. In August 2016, developers announced a $270 million project in the Cool Springs area. It was to include commercial, hotel and retail development.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.tennessean.com/story/money/real-estate/2016/08/10/270-million-project-including-retail-hotel-planned-cool-springs/88524984/|title=$270 million project including retail, hotel planned for Cool Springs|work=The Tennessean|access-date=November 12, 2016}}</ref>
