THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT NUMBERS IN OUR CITY

Birmingham is formed by 99 neighborhoods and 23 communities. For the long-term health and prosperity of our city, we cannot simply focus on one neighborhood or one community. We must endeavor to craft a vision that has an eye on all of Birmingham.

This vision begins with connection – and has already been laid out by the Freshwater Landtrust in the form of the Red Rock Trail System. A system that already offers 120 miles of connection with another 600 or so planned through the Jones Valley.

Connection. That’s the key.

But, for long-term success, we have to begin somewhere.
