In response to a recent set of KNS articles about eclectic neighborhoods in both Nashville and Chattanooga, Josh Flory over at the Property Scope is wondering which Knoxville neighborhoods, if any, qualify as funky or eclectic:

Is the Fourth & Gill/Downtown North area the best candidate? Is our city lagging when it comes to fostering eclectic and funky sections of town? Or is this kind of organic development over-rated in the first place?

All excellent questions. Any thoughts?
