Wikipedia has an Ensley article that we can draw on. There's a recent Birmingham Weekly article on Tuxedo Junction. I also know of an obscure history article about the fight to preserve Ensley's independence during the drive for a "Greater Birmingham" in the 1910s. I'll track it down again. Finally, the B.E.A.T. revitalization project deserves prominent mention. -- Rob 12:19, 28 October 2006 (PDT)
