15th Street North is one of the primary north-south streets on the western end of downtown Birmingham's business district.

15th Street begins at 2nd Avenue North and proceeds northward, below the I-59/20 downtown viaduct to 12th Court North, then jogs to the east to continue another block, ending at 13th Avenue North. Another fragment of 15th Street runs from 22nd Avenue North to Finley Avenue. There is also a cul-de-sac of home on a section of 15th Street North accessed from 26th Avenue North. Another fragment picks up north of the ACIPCO plant at 32nd Avenue North and continues past 33rd Avenue North to an alleyway.
