Highland Park

If you're looking for some top things to see and do in Highland Park and surrounding area, you can visit Highland Park Golf Course and Alabama Ballet.

Highland Park
Truly the best view of the city is from Crest Road. FYI, This is NOT a spot that locals ... or local Law Enforcement want a bunch of tourists visiting. The small one way street only runs about 1000 feet and no stopping is allowed. The street is closed with a keypad locked gate after 7 p.m. I parked down the street and walked up just before 7 p.m. for this shot. Please be aware that in this part of town there is a lot of affluence and Local Law Enforcement is VERY serious about protecting its community... If you look out of place they will find a reason... dig?
