Lost my Student ID in downtown Chattanooga

I was rushing to catch the 8:15 bus this morning and realized my Student ID wasn’t in my pocket. I retraced steps from the downtown library toward the UTC campus, mainly along Broad Street by the Tivoli Theatre. It’s a slim gray plastic card with my name, a small photo, and the campus logo—easy to spot if you know me. I feel anxious because that ID unlocks campus services and meals, and replacements aren’t cheap. I posted here hoping someone who found it will drop it off at the site so I can pick it up and keep moving.

Found carry-ons near Riverwalk, Chattanooga

Found carry-ons near the Riverwalk by the Walnut Street Bridge in downtown Chattanooga this morning around 11:15 a.m. I was out for a stroll along the Tennessee River when I spotted two carry-ons sitting on a bench together, one black with a red luggage tag and the other gray with a blue ribbon. They look like they belong to someone traveling, and I can imagine the anxiety of realizing your bags are missing in a busy moment. I’m posting here to help reunite them with their owner.

Lost 'Wild and Domestic' in Chattanooga

On Friday around 6:20 pm I realized my copy of Wild and Domestic was missing. I was by the Walnut Street Bridge in downtown Chattanooga, after the sunset washed the river in orange. I had tucked the book into the front pocket of my jacket, but it slipped out as I paused to photograph a mural near the bridge. I retraced along Riverfront Parkway, calling out and checking benches and the grassy knoll where I sat for a moment. The pages are dog-eared and some margins contain quick sketches and notes that matter to me more than anything. It’s irreplaceable, and I’m hoping someone picked it up and kept it safe until I can get it back.

Lost GPS devices near Broad Street museum entrance

I was out this afternoon in Chattanooga and realized my GPS devices were missing from my backpack. I stopped near the entrance of the Creative Discovery Museum on Broad Street around 3:12 PM, hoping they’d still be in my bag. They’re small black devices with rugged cases, and losing them rattles me because they map routes I trust for work and personal trips. I’m hoping someone found them and left them somewhere safe; I just want to pick up where I left off, with a clear map and a calmer mind.

Lost travel visas in Chattanooga, TN

Hi, I am James Carter. I realized around 11:20 AM this morning that my travel visas were missing from a folder I had left in my bag at the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport. The folder is dark brown with a red border; visas inside include several important stamps and a few photocopies. I was rushing to catch a flight at Terminal B when I must have dropped it. I am anxious about the delays this could cause and just want to recover the documents. If you found a passport folder near the security checkpoint or baggage claim please let the site know.

Lost dresses in Chattanooga, Tennessee

I lost a cobalt-blue dress during an evening out in downtown Chattanooga. Around 6:15 PM last Friday, it disappeared from my chair outside a cafe near the Walnut Street Bridge. It is knee-length with a subtle lace overlay and a row of pearl buttons along the back. I keep replaying the moment I turned away to grab a bite, hoping someone picked it up and kept it safe. If you found it, I would be grateful—it is more than fabric; it is a memory I was hoping to wear again.
