Welcome to Birmingham, AL from Regions Field
Sunset look at Downtown Birmingham, AL #bvscities
The City of Birmingham, under a management agreement with the Railroad Park Foundation, has created a fabulous public space downtown. I was happy to see it being used heavily even on a cold and cloudy day in December. 

I was impressed by the extent of re-use seen in the walls and seating areas which are constructed from bricks and objects unearthed on the site when Railroad Park construction began. 

This 19 acre green-space was very well thought out and planned. 600 trees are planted with masses of annual, biennial and perennial flowers. The park is 30% water, complete with a beautiful lake and cool rain curtain that is lit at night with LED lights that change color. As you stroll or jog along the parks trails you will see bio-filtrated wetlands and ponds & streams everywhere all irrigated by onsite wells. As the trees start to mature this will only increase the parks awesomeness. 

Well Done Birmingham !

The Park is open 7am-11pm daily. You can visit knowing you are safe as the park is monitored around the clock by a state-of-the-art security system and by rangers on patrol.

Truly the best view of the city is from Crest Road. 

FYI, This is NOT a spot that locals ... or local Law Enforcement want a bunch of tourists visiting. The small one way street only runs about 1000 feet and no stopping is allowed. The street is closed with a keypad locked gate after 7 p.m. I parked down the street and walked up just before 7 p.m. for this shot. 

Please be aware that in this part of town there is a lot of affluence and Local Law Enforcement is VERY serious about protecting its community... If you look out of place they will find a reason... dig?
