A building that served as the Edwards Chevrolet dealership showroom in the 1930s and was last used as a Sticks 'N' Stuff furniture showroom more than seven years ago will become a business incubator.
“We are committed to supporting community redevelopment and strengthening our small businesses,” Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin said. “This project does both.” He said the project will provide offices for businesses that started at Innovation Depot and are ready to move on, but not yet own their offices.The projected economic impact from sales, property, use, and occupational tax will be around $300,000. It is expected that 311 jobs over the next seven years will be generated.
The former Edwards Chevrolet showroom and Sticks ‘N’ Stuff furniture showroom look so much better since being renovated. So nice to see the old abandoned eyesore restored and put to good use.
