Niazuma Avenue

Niazuma Avenue is the name of a segment of road connecting 26th Street South at Highland Avenue to Pawnee Avenue in Birmingham's Highland Park neighborhood.

In the early 20th century, Niazuma Avenue continued to 29th Street South (then called Iroquois Street), before becoming Pawnee Avenue. Before the late 1910s, addresses that now begin in the 2600s were listed in the 1200s, and odd numbers were on the north, rather than the south side of the avenue.
