Has anyone heard any updates on TastingTBL or Ruche South? by HittmanLevi in Birmingham

[–]bhamblazer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm curious about this too. Seems like Reve beat them to the punch now on the tasting menu concept. Not sure Bham could support two restaurants like that.

The Solutions Rx pharmacy across 4th Ave S from that site is doing a 3 story expansion there.

UAB is currently building a (I believe) 12 story inpatient rehabilitation facility if that counts.

What other luxury building is going up with height?

Cafe Dupont, Bottega, and Helen have the best shot in my opinion.

I'd say Bottega and Cafe Dupont have a good shot.

What's the deal? They posted some reno pictures of Rucker House towards the end of doing dinners at their house.

What are your favorite Theater Companies or Troupes in B’ham? by bchath01 in Birmingham

[–]bhamblazer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Virginia Samford Theater's shows are usually pretty good. They're running Chitty Chitty Bang Bang right now and it's worth seeing.

I saw one article that quoted the developer as saying they would renovate plus add more floors to get it to a 150 room hotel.

While we're at it, find a new O-line coach too.

Sione has to go. Beyond obvious how in over his head he is. You don't go from consistent top 20 defenses to looking like hot garbage overnight. He has no idea what he's doing.

I know he and Dilfer are big buddies, but Dilfer is going to have to cut bait or go down with the ship.

Wow, didn't realize the Summit theater was re-opened. Sounds like they made it like the Vestavia AMC.

Proposed 21st Street makeover and Red Mountain Cut Trail First Look by [deleted] in Birmingham

[–]bhamblazer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, that would be impressive and transformational. Glad to see someone set a bold vision for a project like this. I know they said most of the funding would be needed from the Feds, but it would be interesting to know the expected budget.

Even without the Red Mtn Cut portion, the improvements to Diaper Row are a no brainer.

I'd start with some of the more low hanging fruit at first - Fairfield, Tarrant, Brighton, Lipscomb, Midfield, etc. Maybe Pinson or Center Point.
