- RIVERMARK -
Where the River Meets Home
RIVERMARK is Chattanooga’s premier riverfront development opportunity—an exceptional ±70-acre site at the confluence of the Tennessee River and South Chickamauga Creek. Just 3 miles from downtown Chattanooga, this shovel-ready, fully entitled property offers developers a rare opportunity to build a high-density, mixed-use waterfront community in one of the Southeast’s fastest growing and most livable cities.
Previously home to a food-grade soy crushing plant, RIVERMARK has undergone full remediation through Tennessee’s Brownfield Program and is now positioned for a major transformation. The site is zoned CMU-2 with additional rights carried over from its original C-3 rezoning, allowing for maximum flexibility across residential, commercial, and mixed-use product types.
RIVERMARK will allow its residents to enjoy the convenience of downtown living while embracing the outdoor freedom and active lifestyle Chattanooga is known for. Whether launching a kayak at sunrise, biking along the Riverwalk, or strolling through Rivermark’s greenway-linked community paths, residents enjoy the best of both worlds—urban access and natural beauty.
?? Chattanooga: A Nationally Recognized City
RIVERMARK is located in Chattanooga—ranked the #27 Best Place to Live in the U.S. and the #1 city in Tennessee by U.S. News & World Report (2024). The city was also named North America’s first National Park City in 2025, honoring its robust outdoor recreation network and conservation efforts. With a revitalized downtown, strong job market, and growing logistics and tech sectors, Chattanooga is increasingly recognized as one of the most desirable mid-sized cities in the country.
