Five Points South wraps around the University of Alabama at Birmingham with the UAB Campus Green sitting in the heart of the neighborhood. The south end of the neighborhood contains the Vulcan Park and Museum and the Vulcan Walking Trail, while the north end contains Railroad Park Foundation and Regions Field. Five Points South is a historic district that was founded in 1893. It is considered the city’s food hub and is home to top restaurants like Bottega and Highlands Bar and Grill – winner of the James Beard Award.
As Birmingham’s entertainment district, Five Points South provides more than historic architecture, great food, and an energetic student vibe. You’ll also discover a variety of shops, coffee houses, the Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts, and a variety of festivals and events. Five Points South is very walkable and students often walk to and from class. Be sure to stop by the Storyteller fountain, created by local artist Frank Fleming.

Property Ratings at Steel City Flats
9/7/15
Renovated & Elevated!
Steel City Flats is a newly renovated apartment building that sits high in the city of Birmingham. No matter what apartment you lease, you are guaranteed a breath taking view of the city because all the doors are on one side, which face the city view! The apartments are all newly renovated studio apartments, and although small, they are very cozy and homey! I love staying here! The rent is very cost effecient and it includes a flat rate of 30$ for water! The light bill average here is 50$ a month because of the new insulation so you won't have to spend a fortune on power! Everything is new, including apliances and the washer and dryer room is newly renovated as well so you can leave your clothes on wash and have a message sent to your smart phone to let you know when they are done! These apartments are very close to the University of Alabama at Birmingham so if you are a student or just someone looking for a small, but beautiful place to stay this is the place for you! The only downfall to this apartment is that there are limited parking spaces and it is handled on a first come first serve basis, which means you might have to make a spot some nights in the parking lot. Also, the apartment building is on a hill and the parking places are hard to maneuver out of. Especially for someone like me, who drives a stick shift. I often worry I'm going to roll back to far before I get off the clutch and hit another car or an object. Yet, other than the parking this place is 5 stars! Absolutely remarkable!
