The River Rock mixed-use community is now under construction on its 2.79 acre site located in Chattanooga just two blocks from the Tennessee River and the Walnut Street Pedestrian Bridge.
The project will feature 16,000 sf of commercial space and 163 multifamily units. The units will be available in studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts as well as townhomes with attached garages.

The development’s proximity to the waterfront will allow residents and visitors to explore the downtown of Tennessee’s second fastest growing city. Residents will be within walking distance to shopping and dining destinations, the Bluff View Art District, the Chattanooga Lookouts’ AT&T Field, and Ross’s Landing. Additionally, River Rock is near the 13-mile Chattanooga Riverwalk, a path along the Tennessee River’s south bank that winds through several parks.
