City Thread SPORTS Molly Hunker and Greg Corso

By A Mystery Man Writer

City Thread is the winner of an international design competition to transform a formerly unused alley in downtown Chattanooga, TN into a vibrant public space and help catalyze revitalization of this part of the city. Consisting of a continuous linear steel tube and painted graphic surfaces, the project physically connects visitors and local tenants with a single gesture while also breaking down the alley into intimate “urban rooms”. City thread is envisioned as a piece of urban infrastructure that supports numerous programmatic possibilities and conditions.
