865 Neyland

865 Neyland is the University of Tennessee's year-round entertainment district on Knoxville's South Waterfront, rising on the site of the G10 garage between Neyland Stadium and the Tennessee River, a 24-story tower with 51 residences and 186 hotel keys at Phillip Fulmer Way that broke ground in September 2026 and is set to finish in 2029.

51 residences plus 30 condo-hotel units. Riverfront. Developed privately by RVX Ventures, Magellan Development Group and Arctos Sports in partnership with UT, the $288 million project pairs roughly 100,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor dining, retail and entertainment space with a 24-story hotel and residential tower overlooking the stadium. The Gensler-designed tower holds 186 hotel rooms, 51 luxury residences and 30 condo-hotel units, along with a private members club and a signature restaurant, while HCM designed the entertainment district. Two connected plazas anchor the ground plane, with a permanent outdoor performance stage for about 4,000 people fronted by a 50-foot LED screen, a flagship East Tennessee restaurant and a multi-level sports and social venue. The name borrows Knoxville's 865 area code, which spells VOL on a phone keypad.
