The Plaza at Founders Station
Located at the historic intersection of 1st Avenue North and 20th Street North—known as “The Heaviest Corner on Earth”—The Plaza at Founders Station blends Birmingham’s rich past with its thriving present. Originally constructed in 1887 and redeveloped in 2017, this vibrant retail destination offers 9,160 square feet of thoughtfully designed space in the heart of downtown’s bustling Loft District.
Surrounded by cobblestone charm on Morris Avenue and the energy of Birmingham’s fastest-growing tech and culinary scenes, The Plaza is home to acclaimed local favorites including The Essential, Cayo Coco Rum Bar, Pilcrow Cocktail Cellar, and Square One Goods. Its prime location offers unmatched walkability, over 860 nearby public parking spaces, and direct access from both 1st Avenue North and Morris Avenue.
As part of a larger mixed-use development featuring residential condominiums and office space, The Plaza embodies the city’s live-work-play spirit. Whether by day or night, Founders Station is a hub for dining, shopping, and entertainment in one of Birmingham’s most photographed and celebrated neighborhoods.
