Denzel Carbine

As a second-generation builder, Denzel Carbine was an engineer by trade and literally the backbone of Tollgate Village. With a BS in civil engineering from Auburn University, Denzel brought the highest level of engineering skill to his work with Tollgate Village. To acknowledge his accomplishments, the Home Builder's Association of Middle Tennessee awarded Denzel the "Reese Smith Jr. Builder of the Year" Award in 2004 for his vision and community leadership in Middle Tennessee.

Despite Denzel’s passing in July of 2007, Tollgate Village continues to follow his vision in which community members from every walk of life can access all of the daily services that they so desire without having to leave their close-knit neighborhood. He also envisioned a diverse community including families, singles, retirees, and couples of all ages coming together to enjoy the relaxed lifestyle of Tollgate Village. Denzel was also co-owner of Carbine Development, Vice President of the Home Builders Association of Tennessee and a member of the National Association of Home Builders Board of Directors.
