Pumphouse Lane

Birmingham, Alabama

Great neighborhoods are the result of sensitive planning and design throughout all aspects of development. Pump House Lane is the unique result of just such an effort on the part of its development team. Using well crafted, traditional architecture in the French Norman style, the neighborhood is designed with careful attention to creating a distinctive series of memorable outdoor spaces, both for each individual home, and for the development as a whole. The arrangement of streets and sidewalks, as well as the placement and massing of each home, create a series of “outdoor rooms”.

Each residence is entered through a loggia alongside a private garden. These individual gardens are each unique but create a unity through the development. Small rear yards provide a private outdoor space for each owner. Though the development is zero-lotline density, these subtle features create privacy for each residence.
