About

If you visit Chattanooga, Tennesee, take the trolley (or walk over the bridge) to the North Shore. There, all along Frazier Street, you'll find dance steps embedded in the pavement. From the Merengue to the Waltz, there's something for everyone. 

The artwork actually teaches visitors how to dance! Follow the numbers, and you'll be dancing the appropriate steps. If you have some time on your hands, you can even dance your way down one side of the road and up the other.

Know Before You Go

You can take the free shuttle from the Bus Station or walk over the Walnut Street Bridge. 

If driving, try to park near Frazier & Cherokee. The dance steps are on the sidewalk (both sides of Frazier near the entrance to Coolidge Park).
