Birmingham, Alabama is the genteel city of the South. It is magnolia trees, historic buildings, and Southern hospitality. But Downtown Birmingham is also a fast-paced city filled with fascinating locations, great restaurants, theaters, museums, shopping, and more. Forget what you think you know about living in Downtown Birmingham and get ready to be surprised. For example, did you know there's a Loft District? This historic downtown district contains fantastic nightlife in the form of wine tasting rooms, taverns, and clubs. If you head down First Avenue to the corner of First and 20th Street, you'll be standing on the "Heaviest Corner on Earth," nicknamed for the four large buildings built there around 1909 -- then some of the largest and most impressive buildings around.
When you rent an apartment in Downtown Birmingham, you'll enjoy an active, dynamic lifestyle -- but one wrapped in that slowed-down, Old South charm. From the culture of the Birmingham Museum of Art to the history (and haunted creepiness) of Sloss Furnaces, and from the beauty of Linn Park to the elegance of the Alabama Theatre, Downtown Birmingham provides a one-of-a-kind living experience you'll love.
