A Chattanooga development group is seeking rezoning for a so-called new type of garden-style apartment complex on a tract of land off Shallowford Road in the Hamilton Place area.

“The plan is to go to a higher-end apartment development in a different way than what has ever been done before” in Chattanooga, said Mike Price of MAP Engineers, about the 90-unit complex.

Price, who is working with developers Pratt Home Builders and Marcus Lyons, said the units are all single story “garden-style homes” with a small, screened back yard.

The units will offer more privacy, amenities and green space than typical apartments, he said.

Lyons said the project is estimated at about $11 million when fully built out.
