Property at a Glance:
8.5 acres of prime commercial land
Over 46,000 SF of building space
Located on Dayton Blvd in the rapidly growing Red Bank corridor of Chattanooga
Ideal for owner-users, investors, or redevelopers
Chattanooga has emerged as one of the Southeast’s most exciting markets. With a population of nearly 181,100 and a robust regional economy, it ranks as Tennessee’s fourth-largest metro area. Once dominated by heavy industry, the city reinvented itself through strategic investments, such as EPB’s ultra-fast Internet (“Gig City”), and a revitalized downtown that saw over $5 billion in private investment—$1 billion of which occurred just between 2014 and 2018.
The Red Bank area, a city enclave just 5 miles north of Downtown Chattanooga, is seeing its own renaissance. Anchored by Dayton Blvd and bolstered by easy highway and interstate access, it offers a compelling mix of commercial, retail, and mixed-use development opportunities.
Sizeable footprint: 8.5 acres provide ample space for expansions, parking, or redevelopment.
Solid building: The circa‑1980 structure provides approximately 46,000 SF, with 35,000 SF currently leasable as office, retail, or medical—plus room to grow Crexi.
Trigger-price opportunity: With flexible lease rates and an attractive NNN structure, this asset delivers immediate income coupled with long-term upside.
Prime location: Situated right on Dayton Blvd—a high-traffic artery—this property offers visibility, accessibility, and proximity to local businesses and residents.
David Melton draws on his 40+ years of commercial brokerage and M&A experience to underscore Chattanooga’s trajectory:
“We’re seeing demand grow again, but it’s selective. The tenants who are active in the market want better layouts, smart incentives, and responsiveness. Owners who understand that—and deliver it—are winning deals.”
He rounds out the story with his vision for the city:
“Chattanooga’s unique blend of innovation, sustainability, and community engagement makes it an ideal environment for commercial growth. At Pointe, we’re committed to guiding our clients through this exciting landscape, ensuring they capitalize on the opportunities that our city offers.”
And speaking directly on Red Bank’s momentum:
“The sale of this land is pivotal for the Red Bank area. The new owner’s plans will align perfectly with the upward trend in this market, bringing more opportunities for development and community growth.”
