Reading time: 2 minutes
One of the most popular shopping and entertainment destinations in North Alabama is about to see some significant changes and expansion.
The MidCity District in Huntsville announced a series of transformative upgrades and additions underway at Plaza MidCity and the surrounding area.
These improvements—ranging from infrastructure enhancements to new business additions—are designed to support the district’s rapid growth while offering more options for visitors.
What’s new at MidCity?
RCP Properties announced that the “first order of business” is a comprehensive revamp of the Plaza MidCity parking area, aimed at improving accessibility, traffic flow and pedestrian connectivity.
RCP said the redesigned parking layout will better accommodate increasing visitor demand while “creating a safer, more intuitive experience for guests.”
Another facet of the MidCity restructuring was made possible when the City of Huntsville recently approved advancing a major reconstruction of Old Monrovia Road, a key corridor in MidCity District.
The project will feature 2,700 feet of streetscape improvements including:
- New multiuse paths
- Landscaped islands and turn lanes
- Heavy landscaping + irrigation
- Decorative street lighting
Once complete, the upgraded corridor will strengthen connectivity throughout the district and enhance access to Plaza MidCity for both visitors and neighboring communities.
Additionally, new businesses are continuing to join the Plaza MidCity lineup. Guests can look forward to the addition of two fitness concepts: X4 Fitness and GF Fitness.
Also, Maitland Conservatory—a local academy designed to educate modern artists through college-level training in music, visuals and sound—will soon relocate to Plaza MidCity.
