Birmingham Development News
Looks like it's time for a new thread. Hopefully this year will be filled with lots of good news in terms of developments in Birmingham. Here's my wish list for 2007:
Quote:
1) Start of construction on the 18-story hotel/office project by Melaver.
2) Start of construction on the proposed 16-story mixed-use building by Colonial Properties.
3) Start of construction on the Railroad Reservation Park.
4) A new retail center downtown (or at the very least, a few grocery stores and such).
5) Announcement of upgrades/expansion for the BJCC (along with an Entertainment District)
6) Continuation and completion of the renovations of City Federal and Leer Tower.
7) Construction around I-65 where I-22 is to connect.
8) Revitalization of 5 Points South as well as growth of Lakeview District.
9) Opening of the 12,000ft runway at BHM International (as well as gaining new international or distant domestic destinations).
10) Continued growth and expansion of Alabama Adventure Themepark (as well as beginning construction of the new indoor waterpark/hotel/resort nearby).
