TSW’s Chattanooga Office will expand the firm’s presence in Tennessee, north Georgia, and western North Carolina by building on established relationships and pursuing new opportunities.

Chattanooga’s long-standing commitment to planning and landscape architecture has shaped a distinctive urban environment that blends natural beauty with thoughtful design. Historically influenced by the Tennessee Valley Authority’s infrastructure work—such as dams and hydroelectric power—the city’s riverfront and recreational areas have been transformed.

Recent projects like the revitalization of Riverfront Parkway and renovations to public spaces like Miller Park and Patten Parkway demonstrate Chattanooga’s continued focus on walkability, public art, and active urban life. The city’s natural surroundings, including Lookout Mountain and Chickamauga Lake, further influence its planning, offering residents and visitors access to outdoor recreation and scenic beauty.

Chattanooga’s integrated approach to planning and landscape design has enhanced its identity and livability, making it a growing hub for innovation, recreation, and community engagement.
