UT moves forward with Neyland Entertainment District

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) – The Neyland Entertainment District project on the University of Tennessee campus has moved forward, being awarded to the 865 Neyland Project Team.

The group is made up of Jake Miller, Taylor Gray, the Hartland Hotel Group and Johnson Architecture and is being led by Dixon Greenwood.

We are absolutely thrilled to witness our vision for this groundbreaking project taking tangible shape. The development team understood our vision and designed a legacy asset that will significantly impact our campus and overall community. We eagerly anticipate the upcoming phases of this historic endeavor, which is set to influence our campus and the city of Knoxville deeply. The Neyland Entertainment District is poised to become a valuable asset to America’s College Sports City.University of Tennessee Vice Chancellor/Director of Athletics Danny White

The plan includes a nearly 175,000 square foot entertainment district to be managed by the team, which has experience with other similar endeavors with the Texas Rangers, St. Louis Cardinals, Atlanta Braves and more.

Also on the list is an updated G10 parking garage (the entertainment district is slated for the top of G10) and a “condotel,” which is a hotel that’ll include a rooftop restaurant and bar.
