Advocating for the future of RiverChase has been a 3-year undertaking that is far from over. With massive East Bank developments coming soon down the pike, we need the community and city leaders behind us at RiverChase so that this CBA does right by current and future residents, and also sets a precedent for what good development can look like in East Nashville. 

Since May 2019, Stand Up Nashville’s coalition organizations have been advocating on behalf of residents of RiverChase Apartments in East Nashville, once it became clear that the property would be sold and redeveloped. 

SUN’s coalition includes NOAH, The Equity Alliance, SEIU Local 205 & LiUNA Southeast. 

Earlier this year, the property’s new owner, CREA, came to us to request a Community Benefits Agreement for RiverChase, where they were interested in incorporating affordable housing units in with the new, denser complex they planned to build. We have been in negotiations ever since.
