CHI Memorial has designated a portion of road leading to the MaryEllen Locher Breast Center as MaryEllen Locher Way.
The Chattanooga City Council approved a resolution for the designation this month. A public works crew installed the sign on Healthy Street between Glenwood Drive and de Sales Avenue by the CHI Memorial Hospital Chattanooga campus.
MaryEllen was a longtime news anchor at Newschannel 9. She died from breast cancer in 2005.
The MaryEllen Locher Breast Center opened at CHI Memorial in 2007 as an all-inclusive center that allows women to go from a screening mammogram to a diagnostic work-up in one appointment.
The MaryEllen Locher Breast Center has four locations and two mobile coaches. To learn more, visit MaryEllenLocher.com.
