^ I assume this is the old Sherman Plant site? Wonder if that site will still include a hotel.

[GotLuv4Bham]

I was wondering if this is the concrete plant site, or a completely different project across the street

[bhamblazer]

Brownfield usually refers to an old industrial site. The concrete plant would definitely fit that description. Not sure the other buildings at that address would (one story warehouse buildings & an electrical substation).

[TimCity2000]

was hoping for something taller than 5 stories, but that's about par for the course in Parkside. this would be right up against I-65.

This is the property that included the old Western grocery store..
