Exciting changes are coming to Halsey Street with a new overlay that could transform development, making it more walkable and vibrant!

Walkability matters. Designing parking so cars don’t dominate creates safer, healthier communities.

Streets shape how a neighborhood lives. In Woodlawn, 1st Avenue South once felt like a barrier. Fast traffic, stressful crossings, and limited access made daily movement difficult for residents.

Better Birmingham works to create communities where every person can walk, roll, bike, or ride safely, and where daily life is supported by thoughtful design, abundant housing, strong public transit, and welcoming public spaces.

Inclusive design is not a specialty topic. It is a foundation for any city that wants to give its residents real freedom of movement.

Strong communities start with simple things. A corner grocery. A neighborhood restaurant. A place to wash your clothes without driving across town.

A split-screen image with text on the left and a car on the right. The left side has a dark background with white text that reads:
“The car isn’t just a vehicle—it’s a cultural artefact of capitalism.”
Below this heading is a list of points:

Work as a calling → The car enables work, productivity, and purpose
Efficiency and rationalization → Cars are designed for speed, control, and optimization
Material success as virtue → Car ownership signals achievement and self-reliance
Individualism and autonomy → Driving is deeply personal; it’s freedom on four wheels
Disenchantment and mechanization → The car is a machine, not a mystery—a symbol of modernity
Uniformity and standardization → Roads, rules, and car design reflect bureaucratic order
Asceticism and reinvestment → Cars are often bought not for pleasure, but to enable work

The right side shows the front of a silver car parked on a road at sunset, with warm orange light in the background and a power pole visible in the distance.

I see these two friends out and about almost every morning when I get the dogs out.

They are always laughing and enthusiastically say good morning.
