Located directly west of downtown Knoxville and north of the University of Tennessee, Fort Sanders is a haven for college students and recent grads. Fort Sanders is named after a Civil War Union bastion that once stood near the center of town, and the neighborhood’s history runs deep. The Fort Sanders Historic District is filled with original Victorian-era houses and buildings, many named on the National Register of Historic Places. Many others are either rented out or have been converted into apartments to fit the growing renter population in the neighborhood.
The Tennessee River runs south of Fort Sanders with neighboring community parks, large grocery stores, and popular bars. Bus stops are conveniently located around the neighborhood for quick and easy public transportation. In what isn’t taken up by apartments or historical homes, you’ll find an expansive hospital and many doctors’ offices in town.
