CHATTANOOGA, TN (WRCB) -River City Company recently purchased the Ross Hotel with plans to convert the abandoned building into as many as 20 middle-class apartments. The move is the first phase of a bigger plan to transform Patten Parkway into a pedestrian friendly gathering place. River City, with help from the Benwood Foundation, paid 1-point-2 million dollars for the building.
If all goes according to plan, workers could begin construction on the building by 2015.
