Village Place
Wedgeworth is planning to start building out the Village Place development off Montclair Road this year.
Be on the lookout for new buildings around Mountain Brook this year:
Condos on Cahaba Road
The Manning development will build 14 condominiums on Cahaba Road just north of the Birmingham Zoo. The two-story, 33-foot-tall wood frame building will house residences between 1,800 and 3,000 square feet. There will be outdoor parking for 11 cars with additional parking underneath the building for 21 cars.
Landscaping will be added as a buffer between it and Lane Parke Road.
The property was previously home to eight small single-family dwellings that will be demolished to make room for the new building.
Preschool Partners building
Preschool Partners will soon have a building of its own. Its property is located on Montevallo Road across from McElwain Baptist Church.
For the past 20 years, the nonprofit organization has shared and rented space as it has worked toward its mission to equip families of at-risk preschool children with the necessary skills to achieve school readiness.
The 12,000-square-foot space will allow the organization to expand its programming by 60 percent to serve more families of rising Birmingham City Schools kindergarten students. It will also allow the program to be in the same location all week and provide a rainy day activity room, offices for all staff and an enlarged playground.

A denser Village Place
The Pilgrim Place subdivision on Montclair Road should soon be more populated.
The development, currently home to two residences, will be known as Village Place and other changes will come as a new developer works to build out the area.
The subdivision’s street will change names from Pilgrim Place to Village Place. Plans also call for widening the entryway to allow for gates, reducing width of the road to allow for deeper lots, closing setbacks from 12.5 to 10 feet and resurveying some areas.
