Student apartments dominate the Strip: What's open and coming soon to Cumberland Ave.
Two new apartment buildings are opening for the fall semester under the Hub Knoxville brand. Co-developed by Schenk Realty Group and Core Spaces, the completed buildings at 1925 and 2001 Cumberland Ave. will mark the end of Phase 1 in the three-phase Hub Knoxville project.
Hub Knoxville apartments, ranging from studios to five-bedroom units, will come fully furnished. The buildings can accommodate 1,645 students combined, and both will be filled. Rent ranges from $1,261 to $1,745, according to apartments.com.
A Jimmy John's, medical clinic and the Cumberland Foodhall will open on the ground level of the building at 1925 Cumberland Ave. Other amenities open to residents of both buildings include a rooftop deck, coffee shop, study areas and fitness centers.
Not on the Strip but nearby, another new complex called The Mark will welcome students this fall at 124 S. Concord St. near Tyson Park. The new development sits between Kingston Pike near campus and Sutherland Avenue, where UT has prioritized its expansion. Students interested in avoiding the congestion of Cumberland Avenue might want to consider this off-Strip option.
Developed by Landmark Properties, the complex features 291 units ranging from studios to five bedrooms. The price per bed is between $1,200 and $1,600 per month, and amenities include a rooftop pool, media wall and outdoor courtyards.
Apartments opening soon on Cumberland Avenue and near the Strip
Construction isn't slowing down. Over the next two years, three additional apartment buildings are set to open on or near the Strip.
Hub Knoxville plans to open its third building next year at 1990 Cumberland Ave., and the fourth would open in 2027 at 1801 Cumberland Ave. Every amenity across the four Hub Knoxville buildings will be open to all residents.
Just south of the Strip is another student housing development under construction. EVER Knoxville will open in 2026 at 1919 Lake Ave. Previously called VERVE, the project includes 136 units that would house nearly 500 students. Floorplans range from single bedrooms to five-bedroom units, each fully furnished with stainless steel appliances and a full-size washer and dryer.
Community amenities include a pool, podcast room, cafe, club rooms and spas. The temporary leasing office is at 1711 Cumberland Ave.

Boeing workers who build fighter jets plan to go on strike
NEW YORK (AP) — Boeing workers who build fighter jets are planning to go on strike Monday at midnight. About 3,200 workers at Boeing facilities in St. Louis; St. Charles, Missouri; and Mascoutah, Illinois, voted to reject a modified four-year labor agreement with Boeing, the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers union said Sunday. 'IAM District 837 members build the aircraft and defense systems that keep our country safe,' said Sam Cicinelli, Midwest territory general vice president for the union, in a statement. 'They deserve nothing less than a contract that keeps their families secure and recognizes their unmatched expertise.' The vote followed members' rejection last week of an earlier proposal from the troubled aerospace giant, which had included a 20% wage increase over four years. At the time, union leaders had recommended approving the offer, calling it a 'landmark agreement' and saying the offer would improve medical, pension and overtime benefits. Then there was a cooling-off period of a week, followed by the union members rejecting Boeing's latest proposal. 'We're disappointed our employees rejected an offer that featured 40% average wage growth and resolved their primary issue on alternative work schedules,' said Dan Gillian, Boeing Air Dominance vice president and general manager, and senior St. Louis site executive. 'We are prepared for a strike and have fully implemented our contingency plan to ensure our non-striking workforce can continue supporting our customers.' Boeing has been struggling after two of its Boeing 737 Max airplanes crashed, one in Indonesia in 2018 and the other in Ethiopia in 2019, killing 346 people. In June, one of Boeing's Dreamliner planes, operated by Air India, crashed, killing at least 260 people. On Tuesday, Boeing had reported that its second-quarter revenue had improved and losses had narrowed. The company lost $611 million in the second quarter, compared to a loss of $1.44 billion during the same period last year.

The Bureau of Labor Denial
We had our say Saturday about President Trump's dubious decision to fire the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) after a lousy July jobs report, and the world has piled on. But it's worth noting the burden of the advisers who have had to support the President's claim that the data were 'rigged.' Start with Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer, who told Bloomberg TV early on Friday that, even though the jobs data was revised downward for May and June, 'we've seen positive job growth.' Ok, sometimes in politics you have to look at a rotten apple and call it merely overripe. But then Mr. Trump fired the BLS director, who reports to Ms. Chavez-DeRemer. She snapped to attention. 'I agree wholeheartedly with @POTUS that our jobs numbers must be fair, accurate, and never manipulated for political purposes,' she tweeted. So were the jobs data that were 'positive' in the morning rigged by the afternoon? We realize the troops have to support the commander, but Ms. Chavez-DeRemer isn't making a name for herself as a credible spokesperson for labor policy or data.
