This neighborhood is home to the Birmingham Museum of Art as well, along with a diverse collection of restaurants, ranging from Southern comfort food, burgers, and Mexican fare. The nightlife scene in Central City is booming, spanning from casual bars to cocktail lounges. The University of Alabama at Birmingham sits directly south of Central City, offering the neighborhood a college-town feel.
