Riding the crest of international acclaim from a two-decade resurgence, including $120 million in riverfront development and $300 million in private investment, downtown Chattanooga is a shining example of how a best-kept secret can come alive as one of the most progressive and livable mid-size cities in America.

In addition to a 12% increase in downtown residents in the last 10 years, 50,000 daily inhabitants and 10,000 attending the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, downtown Chattanooga hosts 3 million tourists each year – all ready to shop ‘til they drop. In fact, 50% of residents have an average household income of $50,000+ while 30% exceed an average household income of $75,000.

Plenty of great opportunities to hang a shingle.

With a variety of award-winning restaurants and a wealth of entertainment and recreation opportunities, downtown Chattanooga is primed for retail growth. Warehouse Row, a downtown emporium of boutique shops and restaurants, and many street-level storefronts dot the City Center. Likewise, eclectic shopping streets flank the Northshore, UTC campus and Southside neighborhoods. Each offers an array of location opportunities with ample parking, free electric shuttles, bike lanes and walkability.
