Nashville Zoning

I need an person that is familiar with Nashville, TN zoning and codes. I have a lead on an ugly duplex, that was converted to a SFR, and is close to an area being "re-gentrified". According the the assessors web site the lot is 7000 sq. ft. (50 x 140) and the zoning is R6. I know I could rehab the house and put it back to a duplex and that would be good. Could I bulldoze it and put up 2 skinny houses? There is an alley in back, so I would like to put a rear entry garage / basement. I know there are set-back requirements. I think a HPR will be needed if I try to do 2 deeds. What other restrictions will I face? Is there a site I can use to research utility easements that could get in the way? I know about the property maps site, but can't find a layer for water, sewer, etc.
