Wow that is crazy I thought everyone but myself were atleast in there thirties. Thats good because we all want the best for Mobile and we can change it for the better I hope. The old Mobile thinking and growth is a thing of the past now, Theres another generation that actualy want it to grow and change for the better. It`s crazy how the city of Detroit past Mobile but yet it`s founder is from Mobile.If you were to go on that corner of Royal street wich is right next to the new hotel they are building. It has an historic marker on a building that has "Antoine Laumet de La Mothe, sieur de Cadillac" French founder of Detroit,Mi who use to reside in that very same building or the old Buick building is what it use to be also. So if B-ham is the Detroit of the south,then what does that makes Mobile then lol ?

Yep !, I don`t care what that Buckett guy from B.R say I have strong feelings that NG will put a tower downtown. This protest may drive Ng to put more investment in Mobile

Yeah it is , There is a sort of brownstone type of Condos on Govt st called Central Park Condos are something like that , but any way they look good also. I wish there would be more built like them in Mobile mainly mid town/ down town because of the urban feel to it. Next time you come back to the Port City check it out it`s on your left comming from DT. I heard in B.R they are building a whole block of brownstones ? I can imagine the charecter a block of brownstones would do for Mobile , with red brick streets and oaks shadding the street like Fort Conde Village that would be crazy, I would live there hell who wouldn`t.

Speaking of apartments/condos near downtownish ,you may take a look at the old Summerville Court Apartment complex on SpringHill Ave. Pretty close to downtown and they are very nice on the inside. I looked there for my move home but the rent rates were more than I could afford. The places have granite counters/stainless appliances and all the other comparable ammenities. They are selling in the 100's for 1 and 2 bedroom models if I am not mistaken. I thought it looked more reasonable compared to prices on similar models at Matress Factory, St Louis Lofts, etc. I was shocked they were cheaper after getting a rental rate close to $1000 for 2 bedrooms.

I know these are becoming very popular, especially for some people with money that still want a nice place in town if they move away. They look really nice to me.

I am 33. I did not go to school here. I graduated from Kinston High School in Coffee County. I moved to Mobile in 1999 when I was 24.

My wife is from Enterprise, Alabama, also in Coffee County. She graduated from Enterprise High and went on to Troy University. Her job is why we moved to Mobile.

We really like it here a lot. She could have recently went to a job in Florida, but because we like it here, we do not want to leave.

I dunno why, but i thought Tower on Ryan Park was for like senior citizen's only or something, or that it was an assisted living complex. When was that thing built, its a pretty large building, and i cant imagine the views from there.



Its the wide building behind the cathedral here.

My wife may. She lived there her entire life untill moving to Mobile. I lived across the county on the west side fairly close to Opp.
