History
Signal Mountain was developed beginning in the early 20th century as a summer retreat for Chattanooga's upper class seeking cooler temperatures and scenic views. A planned hotel resort anchored early development. The community incorporated as a town in 1919 and transitioned from seasonal to permanent occupancy through the mid-20th century.
