      Neighborhood

      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.

      Don't Judge an Apartment by its floors

      after first moving in everything seemed great. It took a couple weeks for problems to start popping up. The units look new on the inside but that just hides how old they are. A poorly handled bed bug infestation migrated from unit to unit. If you are a fan of reducing energy cost this is not the place for you. Single pane windows prevent the AC unit from cooling the apartment causing expensive power bills every month. Smells drift from unit to unit, i.e. If your neighbor uses the bathroom you will know it. I personally can not wait to move.
