North Titusville is a neighborhood in the Titusville community of Birmingham. It is divided from South Titusville by the community's main street, 6th Avenue South, and flanked in the north by the Norfolk Southern Railroad. The neighborhood's boundaries are Elmwood Cemetery to the west and I-65 to the east. It is home to the Golden Flake snack food factory.
North Titusville includes the 498-unit Loveman Village public housing community and the sprawling former Trinity Steel site, a brownfield which the city is actively trying to redevelop. In 2012 the Regional Planning Commission of Greater Birmingham reported that 27 percent of the neighborhood's land was vacant or abandoned, most of it in parcels appraised at $56,000 or less.
The North Titusville Neighborhood Association, headed by John C. Harris, meets on the 3rd Saturday of each month at the Titusville Library.
