About This Home

The hottest neighborhood in Birmingham currently. 1 minute from downtown and UAB.. Tons of gentrification! They say buy in the path to progress. Think Avondale, Norwood, before prices skyrocketed. Lots of new builds and renovated houses and apartments in this neighborhood. Whole blocks have been demolished and are in the process of being developed. UAB is offering grants to employee and students who buy in this neighborhood. There are 3 nonprofit organizations that are aggressively buying in this neighborhood. The city is about to label it a historical district.
