A key component to its success has been residential growth through public and private sector investment partnerships. These collaborative efforts have resulted in redevelopment and conversion of older multi-story structures and, most recently, new construction. Investments in downtown’s infrastructure and non-residential properties, such as retail shops, restaurants, and offices, have bolstered the area’s housing market, as has investment in adjoining areas, such as the University of Tennessee campus, Cumberland Avenue, Downtown North, Magnolia Avenue corridor, and PropertyPropery Types Type Map 2: Downtown Knoxville Underdeveloped Property C T Y the South Waterfront.

  • Civil War Trail
    Crescent Bend During the Civil War, Crescent Bend was used by both Union and Confederate Armies as a command center and hospital. Thousands of soldiers encamped and fought skirmishes on its farmland. It is also noteworthy for this era for possibly being a safe house on the Underground Railroad. A hidden trapdoor beneath the main staircase led to a room where runaway slaves were sheltered. Drury Armstrong's Crescent Bend started with 600 acres of land on the north side of the Holston River (now called the Tennessee River). Within a few years he acquired another 300 acres on the south side. He owned several other tracts of land in and around Knoxville, upon one of which a famous Civil War battle, the Battle of Armstrong's Hill, would be fought. In addition to these land holdings, he also owned 50,000 acres of wooded and pastoral mountain land in Sevier and Blount Counties, Tennessee. He gave the name “Glen Alpine” to his land between the West Prong of the Little Pigeon River and the East Prong of the Little Tennessee River. This land today makes up about 10% of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. During the Civil War, the house was used by both Union and Confederate Armies as a command center and hospital. Thousands of soldiers encamped and fought skirmishes on Crescent Bend farmland. Originally the Union Army controlled Crescent Bend and built an earthen fortification around the house; began on the western side of the house, wrapped around the back of the house, and connected with Kingston Pike on the east.

  • I'd Really Like to See a 20-Story Condominium Built from the Ground
    I‘d really like to see a 20-story condominium built from the ground up downtown, with river and mountain views,” says Bob Talbott, a developer known for his careful approach to development prospects. “That’s when we’ll know we’ve arrived.” Arrival may not be that far off. In the midst of the current boom in redevelopment of existing downtown properties for residential purposes, architect Buzz Goss, the downtown-dwelling architect who is partnering with David Dewhirst, the historic-building rehabilitation pioneer, is involved in the planning of a mid-rise condo building on Gay Street that’s being designed with high-rise expansion possibilities in mind. Contingent on the city’s final decisions on the downtown transit center’s Gay Street entrance configuration, the proposed condo buildingwas first described as a 7-story, 70-unit structure to be built over two floors of parking and a retail floor at the Gay Street level. “I’m designing it to be up to 15 stories high,” Goss now says. It may or may not proceed, but the idea is out there, and Goss and Dewhirst and their other partners in the proposal may well be the ones to do it. Market forces will dictate the outcome, but a condo tower is believed to be moresubstantial than pie in the sky by the conservative Talbott, whose company, Holrob Investments, has concentrated its business in commercial development. “I’d love to be involved,” says Talbott of the downtown’s residential future. The growth of downtown Knoxville residential demand has been phenomenal to those who looked at downtown housing patterns five years ago and shrugged off the opportunities that were just coming into focus.

Certain geographical barriers, such as the river and the railroad tracks, have prevented the sub-com- munities within Knoxville from coming together and fi nding unity, but most of the separation is deeply rooted in the his- tory of the region and the ways with which confl ict has been dealt. The fragmentation of the community has caused some sub-populations and areas of the city to become forgotten and to feel isolated and powerless against the majority.
