A four-story residential and commercial structure will serve as a new gateway building at the edge of Chattanooga’s Southside, officials said Monday.
The building, slated to hold 32 residential units, is to rise at the corner of Central Avenue and Rossville Boulevard, said Allen Jones of Stone Creek Consulting after the proposal won rezoning approval Monday from a city panel.
“It will be the gateway of the neighborhood,” he said in an interview after a Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Commission meeting.
Jones said work could begin later this year on the building that’s to hold ground-floor commercial space with residential space above it.
“It’s a unique project,” he said at the meeting about the proposed development that is going where a convenience store now operates at the corner.
