Project in motion

Bellevue Montgomery

New Construction

Rising in Memphis’s Crosstown neighborhood, Bellevue Montgomery is a 23-unit townhome development designed to expand access to attainable home-ownership for working families in the city’s growing Medical District. As the area continues to see rapid growth, the need for “missing middle” housing has become more urgent, with limited options for families seeking quality homes at attainable and affordable price points.

To help meet that need and move the project forward, financing from Pathway Lending supported the development of Bellevue Montgomery, making it possible to bring new housing options to the community. Now under construction and expected to open in 2026, Bellevue Montgomery will provide opportunities for more families to put down roots, strengthen the neighborhood, and support the continued growth of Memphis’s Medical District.
