where on maple is all of this? What was there before?

This area is right next to the Birmingham train station right on the border with Troy MI, just west of the big shopping center on Coolidge. I believe this area was full of old warehouses before this new development was built.

@lapdawg2 Ford, and tractor, but thanks for letting the Internet know that white people who grew up in a decent part of Michigan, known for being great and wealthy, can't spell properly. You really want to make me move there now. And by there I mean out of the state. Ass.

I love how cookie cutter all of the cars are. So realistic even for the recession.

I grew up on Windemere which is four or five streets up, the old ford Tractor assembly plant used to be there

@Nomis2779 On the taxes too, it's stupid. You would think the recession and simple living marketing would have a hand in lowering prices so more average people can grow the city into something notable and not just old white people. with money to spend. I heard that they're starting an Occupy B'ham now too. As of about a week ago.

@Nomis2779 I still think it's crazy that Google has an office in B'ham.

I live in Michigan.Love Birmingham but the price tag is way too expensive for me.I was looking for a condo there I thnk I'm just going to have to settle for a loft in Royal Oak.The taxes in B-ham are insane.
