Breathing Life Into Landmarks

Join us as we delve into the fascinating world of historic rehabilitation through the help of tax credits. On this tour, we will discuss the redevelopment of some of Birmingham’s most cherished landmarks including revisiting some of the “12 Most Wanted” properties identified by Operation New Birmingham nearly 20 years ago. We will explore how tax credits played a crucial role in revitalizing these buildings, and see first-hand the positive impact they have had on the community.

Parkside

Join Gary Bostany, VPM educational docent, and learn about the transformation of Birmingham’s historic warehouse district to a thriving mixed-use urban neighborhood called “Parkside” along Railroad Park and the surrounding area. Parkside is a standout example of how a well-designed public space, such as Railroad Park, can be a catalyst for new development and economic growth. The Parkside district that surrounds the popular park is among the most rapidly changing spaces in Birmingham. This mixed-use neighborhood has a history worth preserving along with new, good design. Participants will explore both.
