Historic Buildings Turn Into Modern Workspaces

In the 1980s, downtown Birmingham was nothing like it is today. Empty warehouses and dilapidated buildings lined the streets. Where many saw blight, Sloss saw potential.

As a counter to suburban sprawl, Sloss Real Estate then embarked on an urban redevelopment that has now become Pepper Place. This collection of old buildings that once made up Dr Pepper syrup and bottling facilities are now one of Birmingham’s go to destinations.

Revitalized Spaces

Pepper Place boasts hundreds of thousands square feet of mixed-use space filled with shops, restaurants and local businesses.

In addition to being prime real estate, Pepper Place has become a dynamic community hub that spurs and encourages new growth and innovation. The result is a thriving district where historic architecture houses cutting-edge businesses.

Recently, two buildings in particular, The EPIC Insurance building at 2720 3rd Avenue S. and the newly branded 2717 building at 2717 2nd Avenue S. show the potential in old buildings and how they can be adapted for modern business.

Curious if Pepper Place has a space for you close to local restaurants, shops, and area walking trails?
