Massive $133M Birmingham project adds parking, housing, retail, extends Bates Street
Quote:
An ambitious multi-million dollar plan for Birmingham that would add hundreds of parking spaces, as well as new housing and businesses, is taking shape.
Walbridge/Woodward Bates Partners recently presented its proposed project, which Commissioner Rackeline Hoff called "one of the largest projects done in Birmingham," and Mayor Patty Bordman agreed it would "impact a lot of people in different ways."
In the proposal, the North Old Woodward parking structure would be demolished, a new one constructed in its place, and retail buildings added on the site, as well as mixed-use buildings on surrounding properties. Bates Street would be extended, and a plaza would connect the street to Booth Park.
