Chattanooga receives $50 million from HUD for One Westside

The city of Chattanooga and the Chattanooga Housing Authority have been selected for a $50 million HUD Choice Neighborhood grant for the One Westside development. The $1 billion-One Westside project will bring in new affordable housing to replace obsolete housing units one-for-one while still building a mix of new housing types. The project is aimed to be a vibrant community with commercial activity and economic opportunity across the 115-acre footprint of the Chattanooga Housing Authority. Plans were developed with input from 82% of the more than 2,000 residents in the development and will bring in more than 1,000 new units of housing in downtown Chattanooga.
