The development’s proximity to the waterfront will allow residents and visitors to explore the downtown of Tennessee’s second fastest growing city. Residents will be within walking distance to shopping and dining destinations, the Bluff View Art District, the Chattanooga Lookouts’ AT&T Field, and Ross’s Landing. Additionally, River Rock is near the 13-mile Chattanooga Riverwalk, a path along the Tennessee River’s south bank that winds through several parks.
