“Spaces” are where you live and work and eat and play. They’re where you feel at home or enjoy getting away from home. Spaces can be your gym or your she-shed, your grocery store or your favorite bar, your car or your kitchen.
It’s not just about the arched windows or the marble flooring — though those things can certainly make a space stand out. But beyond the four walls, the brick facade and the domed ceiling, a space might have great importance or history. It could have seen monumental people and events.
A city is defined by its spaces — based on where people go and what they do, the style of architecture or the amount of greenery. In Chattanooga, our spaces tell a story of the Scenic City — who we are, where we’ve been, and where we’re going.
We have useful spaces and unusual spaces. We have spaces with memories to share. We have spaces that used to be other sorts of spaces until they underwent a metamorphosis, and we have spaces that are on their way to becoming something new right now.
