Added to the National Historic Register in 1979, this historic neighborhood is adjacent to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and steps from Erlanger Hospital, a Level 1 trauma center and teaching hospital. The area is beloved for its historic architecture including Victorian, Tudor, Colonia Revival, and Queen Anne style homes. The most recognizable streets include Vine, Oak, and Fort Wood and if you're an admirer of local history and architecture, this is the right neighborhood for you. Besides the majestic trees that provide amazing shade throughout the district, take note of the brick and limestone retaining walls, many of which have been standing for more than one hundred years. Notable residents of Fort Wood include T.C. Thompson, Mayor of Chattanooga 1909-1915 and founder of his namesake Children's Hospital nearby; George Fort Milton, owner and publisher of the Chattanooga News; and George's second wife Abby Crawford Milton, integral in the ratification of the 19th Amendment.
