Friends of Mountain Creek, located between Lookout Mountain and the Tennessee River, is a residential and outdoorsy Chattanooga neighborhood with wooded creek corridors and trail-linked green space. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Mountain Creek Road corridor near the trailheads, where cyclists, hikers, and dog-walkers set the pace. Housing leans toward hillside homes and newer subdivisions set back from the road, with porches and decks oriented to the trees. The Mountain Creek Greenway frames daily routines with shaded walks and creekside views. Reflection Riding Arboretum & Nature Center and the Tennessee Riverpark add a nature-first cultural layer. A short drive connects to St. Elmo’s local storefronts and cafes for a change of scene.

This zone accommodates those limitations by maintaining the neighborhood environment, which is predominantly characterized by single-unit homes, many of which are or will be developed with septic, on lots of 7,500 square feet or greater
