Medical District

More than 30,000 people work in the 700-acre Medical Center and around 7,800 students attend the neighborhood's educational anchors. 

Growth in biomedical research is positioning the Memphis Medical Center as an internationally recognized leader in biosciences. New medical and research centers and expansions to existing facilities are creating a growing need for housing and amenities to support this large employee and student population. 

The neighborhood is characterized by high-rise apartment buildings interspersed among medical and office buildings. Low-rise, mid-century apartment buildings along both sides of Cleveland Avenue have attracted a growing immigrant population.
