Penny Leal says that early this decade, few people wanted to live in downtown Chattanooga and there weren’t a lot of housing options in the central city.

“It’s so different now,” said Leal, a leasing consultant for the Vista Cameron Harbor apartments which were recently added along downtown’s waterfront.

DOWNTOWN LIVING

The Explore Downtown Living Tour of apartment and condo developments is set for June 3 from 1-4 p.m. Free and open to the public, check-in will be at Miller Plaza, 850 Market St. Pre-registration is encouraged at www.rivercitycompany.com.

With more than 3,000 apartment units, nearly 2,000 student beds, and 250 condominiums and townhomes having recently opened or coming online within the next year or so, downtown is seeing a surge of new housing.

On Sunday, June 3, the Explore Downtown Living Tour of 14 apartment and condo developments will take place from 1-4 p.m. as the central city redevelopment group River City Co. shows some of the new apartment and condominium choices.
