A beloved fixture of downtown Tuscaloosa is officially for sale as the Children's Hands-On Museum prepares to rebrand and relocate inside the under-construction Saban Center.

The University of Alabama System's Board of Trustees voted Thursday to buy a 13-story apartment building for $5 million and fill in the last gap on the northern edge of their Tuscaloosa campus.

Tuscaloosa got five acres bigger on Tuesday as elected officials annexed two adjacent properties on New Watermelon Road where a developer is planning to build a gas station, a small retail center and 24 apartments.

Tuesday was a rare and rapturous day for Habitat for Humanity of Tuscaloosa as they dedicated two homes built to honor Nick & Terry Saban in the same morning.

Developers and future tenants gathered on newly cleared land on Lake Tuscaloosa to take in the stunning views soon to be offered at the luxury condos now under construction there.

Developers and local leaders were in west Tuscaloosa Wednesday morning to break ground on the first of a group of new townhomes to be built there amid serious public investment in the area.

The first of ultra-luxe condominiums planned for the shores of Lake Tuscaloosa are available for pre-sale at prices that reflect their exclusivity.
