CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) — Perimeter Properties announced the purchase of Motor Wheel’s facility on November 2025.

According to Bridge Public Affairs, Motor Wheel, who manufactures brake parts, will move to a facility in the South Broad District.

“Our facility on Sidney Street proudly employed generations of Chattanoogans for over a century, and we are thrilled to continue to provide highly skilled, manufacturing jobs at our new Alton Park location for many years to come. I look forward to returning to our facility often to see how it will be given new life as a major fixture in the Foundries District,” Jeff Bates, General Manager of Motor Wheel said.

With the purchase of Motor Wheel, the current site will not be demolished.

Rather, it will be rehabilitated and repurposed for the community to use.

Plans for the Motor Wheel facility will come at a later date.
