Every other day, seems like a new developer is looking to build apartments or retail in the South Main community of Downtown Memphis. Several new projects are under development in the neighborhood to keep up with the demand in the area, such as The Horizon, which is one of the biggest projects coming to the area. The Horizon is a 16 story condo tower that is currently up for sale, and another development firm is planning 90 high end units that will be located near the South Main Farmer’s Market and across from the Florida Street South Junction complex, which contains 197 residential units and is also new, with earlier move-in dates that were planned for May.

The new complex doesn’t have a name yet, although “South End” is being considered, according to insiders. The design, the mix of bedroom sizes and the rent spread have all yet to be determined, meaning that another undetermined factor is the project cost.

The South Main Arts District in Memphis, Tennessee makes up the southern portion of Downtown Memphis. It is located along South Main Street. On the last Friday of each month, an event called “Art Trolley Tour” is put on by the owners of the South Main Memphis businesses and art galleries. From 6-9 p.m., this includes free MATA trolley service up and down Main Street, open art galleries, and longer hours for most area shops and restaurants. As the area continues to grow, the South Main part of Memphis will be increasingly desirable for work, play, and living. Moving to Memphis? This neighborhood might be just what you are looking for!
