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.

Hilton Birmingham Downtown at UAB

10/10 Excellent

"All staff were friendly and helpful. The room was nice and well kept. No issues during our stay. Shuttle to and from airport both were pleasant and smooth rides. Would recommend "

John Hand Club Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was great. This isn't like a normal hotel... it is some suites that are in an office building. Checkin was done at the security office and you have access to the club on floor 20. No complaints at all, a very nice place and great facilities, but if you are expecting a normal hotel with restaurants and people everywhere, this isn't like that."

Damn Fine Peeps and Suds at the Good People Brewery and Taproom!! Enjoy drinking your beer at tables right out on this working brewery floor.

I would highly recommend a stop for one of their tours that they offer on Saturdays from 2pm to 4pm on the hour.

Signing up online is the best way to go to reserve a slot. Each tour is limited to 15 peeps so... nice and intimate.

$10 gets you a collectible glass and a pint or four 4-oz samples.
