Medical District Memphis, TN

Once just a center for medical care in Memphis, now an up-and-coming active community

Economy Community Convenient

Located just a few blocks east of Downtown Memphis and stretching from Danny Thomas Boulevard to Interstate 69, the Medical District of Memphis is quickly becoming a neighborhood known for its character, rather than its industry. Characterized by high-rise apartment buildings interspersed among medical and office buildings, and low-rise, mid-century apartment buildings along both sides of Cleveland Avenue have attracted a growing and diverse population. This is obviously a convenient neighborhood for anyone who works in or associated with the growing medical industry in Downtown Memphis. Such a large employment force means there are plenty of restaurants and entertainment choices, and the center of Memphis is just a few minutes’ walk away.
