A building that's among downtown Chattanooga's oldest structures - and sits next to one of the city's newest - is on the market.
Known as the Downtown Mart, the three-story structure that's for sale at 706 Market St. was built in 1920. It's adjacent to Market City Center, the 10-story tower that holds 125 apartments along with retail and office space that opened late last year.
The Downtown Mart contains 5,520 square feet of space per floor, including a basement, according to broker Yun H. Gravitt of Coldwell Banker Pryor Realty.
The commercial/retail building located in the central business district could be converted into apartments or condo/office with retail on the main level, according to the broker.
