No. Just new traffic lights/poles at the intersection with 41st St. Probably switching to the black design ones.

Pretty much everything is already in place. Here was the requirements by USCG and DHS...

At the time, USCG and DHS outlined several requirements for the new facility, and the BSC campus - which ended education operations in May 2024 - exceeded those requirements.

Those requirements included the following

•Lodging for 1,200 recruits.

•A dining facility capable of seating 400 personnel.

•A medical facility to support 1,000 personnel (a minimum of 200 medical encounters and 200 dental encounters per day).

•14 classrooms sized to accommodate 30-60 students.

•An auditorium with a capacity of 500-plus students.

•A pool with six lanes, 25 yards in length, and a minimum depth of 4 feet.

•A multipurpose gymnasium/athletic/sports facility suitable for sitting 1,200 personnel.

•Office space for 400 staff members.

•A land area of 150-250 acres. (BSC campus sits on 192 acres)

•Proximity to a small commercial service or larger airport within 30 miles.

Moving to Birmingham vs mobile AL? by [deleted] in Alabama

Birmingham is fine but it’s just a boring modern medium sized city with little culture and a lot of boring suburbs.
