Bryant had purchased the former Firestone Building and Adamson Ford car lot in 2003 and had pursued various unsuccessful redevelopment schemes with Schmalz before announcing 20 Midtown in 2014. The project was conceived as "suburban urbanism," offering amenities such a supermarket, drive-thru restaurants, and ample parking, within a decidedly urban building form in the heart of Midtown. The City of Birmingham approved a $6.4 million incentives package, including partial sales tax reimbursements for ten years. The project was designed by Tammy Cohen of Cohen Carnaggio Reynolds and built by Stewart Perry Construction.
The first 36 apartment units, ranging from 665 to 1,139 square feet, were constructed on the southern part of the development. Another 86 apartments, with indoor access to the supermarket, are expected to be completed in 2016. A third phase, with 240 units along with a swimming pool and additional retail space, began construction in 2017. The total development will have around 360 apartment units.
