Urban Story Ventures to Redevelop 112-Acre Site Along Chattanooga’s Tennessee River

by John Nelson July 3, 2018

CHATTANOOGA, TENN. — Urban Story Ventures, a Chattanooga-based commercial real estate developer and owner, is planning the redevelopment of a 112-acre site in Chattanooga’s West End district. Situated along the Tennessee River, the site houses the former Alstom turbine plant, as well as adjacent buildings and land. Preliminary plans call for Urban Story Ventures to preserve the LEED Gold-certified plant and renovate the remaining buildings and land for mixed-use, including office space, restaurants and residences. The developer is also planning a combination distillery, brewery and winery — a first for Tennessee. Urban Story Ventures recently established West End Property LLC to oversee the project. The company hopes to recruit a manufacturer to occupy the space left behind in 2016 by Alstom, a French rail transport company that sold its power and grid business lines to GE Power (NYSE: GE) in 2015. “This is the most significant resurgence of Chattanooga’s riverfront since Mayor Bob Corker implemented the 21st Century Waterfront in 2002,” says Jimmy White, principal of West End Property LLC and owner of Urban Story Ventures. “The development will create hundreds of jobs, connect people to the river and create a whole new district and destination for residents and visitors.” …

The office towers will be leased by State Farm, which also leased the 21-story office tower in Phase I. Phase II of Park Center started with the implosion of the existing 240,000-square-foot, 10-story Hammond Exchange building on March 4, 2017. The remainder of 2017 was spent removing the debris from the implosion, blasting and removing over 300,000 cubic yards of rock, site grading, relocation and placement of utilities, and installation of tower cranes. In addition, construction started on the parking structure and building pad for Building 2. Several large culverts were constructed for a new road that will connect Perimeter Parkway in Dunwoody to Peachtree Dunwoody Road in Sandy Springs.
