Oak Hill
New homes in Ensley. Where Birmingham began.
27 new single-family homes in the Belview Heights area of Ensley – part of a $25 million partnership between GROWTH Homes and the City of Birmingham to reinvest in one of the city’s most historically significant neighborhoods. New construction, real finishes, real prices.
Welcome to Oak Hill
A historic Birmingham neighborhood getting the investment it deserves
Ensley was once the heart of Birmingham’s iron production – a booming neighborhood that, at its peak, was home to Tuxedo Junction and a thriving working-class community of 40,000 residents. As the steel industry declined, so did investment in the area. Decades passed. The population shrank to a fraction of what it was. But the neighborhood’s identity never left.
Oak Hill is part of a $25 million commitment between GROWTH Homes and the City of Birmingham to change that. Located near 51st Street Ensley and Avenue K in the Belview Heights area, these 27 new single-family homes bring brand-new construction to a neighborhood that has been waiting for it built by a partnership that includes minority and women-owned contractors from the Birmingham Construction Industry Authority. These are homes built for community. Priced for the people who belong here.

the neighborhood
Tuxedo Junction. History you can walk to.
Ensley was famous before Birmingham was. The neighborhood that gave Glenn Miller’s band its name is seeing new investment for the first time in decades. New apartments, a redeveloped office tower, a new grocery, and now 27 new homes in Belview Heights. Oak Hill is part of a real story – not a concept.
