Plan to transform Mobile 's MLK Avenue into civil rights , cultural heritage district King, Jr. Avenue.It's a project being spearheaded by the Mobile County Commission, and it comes at the same time the city of Mobile has revealed its plan to completely rework the avenue's utilities and street scape
The plan? Make this neighborhood a destination for those who want to live, work and play in a vibrant, healthy neighborhood... the way "The Avenue" used to be. Mobile's County Commissioners, led by Merceria Ludgood, are kicking off the effort with more than three million dollars of federal funds thanks to the American Rescue Plan triggered by the COVID pandemic.
"From day one, when we first learned about the project from the county, they emphasized the need for public engagement and public input. Says Ludgood. “So you know, we try to balance out what people want to see with experience in other communities and come up with a plan that meets their expectations but is still realistic and implementable."
