For more than a century, Montague Park in Southside Chattanooga has been home to many things: a city landfill, a recreation center and a sculpture garden.

Now, an urban design and landscape planning process will reimagine the park, to revitalize the space for this century.

Chattanooga Design Studio is guiding the process in partnership with the city’s Department of Parks and Outdoors as well as community stakeholders.

Eric Myers is the Studio’s executive director - and Scott Martin is the administrator of Parks and Outdoors.
