Birmingem (Alabama) - Birmingham (Alabama)

Birmingem eng katta shahar Alabamava uning madaniy va iqtisodiy yadrosi. 60-yillardagi Fuqarolik huquqlari harakati paytida norozilik namoyishlari, portlashlar va boshqa irqiy g'alayonlar joyi sifatida eng yaxshi esga olingan bo'lsa-da, bugungi Birmingemga tashrif buyuruvchilar yoqimli yashil tog 'tizmalari, vodiylar, jozibali ko'rinishlar va mehmondo'st, mehmondo'st odamlarni topadilar. .

Tushuning

Birmingem (farqli o'laroq Angliyadagi shahar, "h" emas bu erda jim) shaharda 210 ming kishi yashaydi (2018) va metro zonasida 1,2 million kishi (2010).

Tarix

Umuman aytganda, Janubiy Amerika Qo'shma Shtatlarining aksariyat zamonaviy shaharlari 18-asrda yoki 19-asrning boshlarida chegara qal'alari yoki savdo punktlari sifatida (yoki, masalan, qirg'oq shaharlari misolida) boshlangan. Charlston yoki Norfolk(dengiz portlari sifatida), keyin antebellum davrida o'sib bordi ma'muriy markazlar, u erda atrofdagi odamlar hukumat biznesini olib borish uchun va / yoki qishloq xo'jalik mollarini sotish uchun kelgan shaharlarga. Birmingem tarixi bundan ancha farq qiladi.

Birinchidan, bu janubiy shaharlarning ko'pchiligidan ancha yoshroq: garchi bu erga 1810-yillarda yoki undan keyin oq ko'chmanchilar kela boshlagan bo'lsa-da, Fuqarolar urushi zamonaviy shahar chegaralarida hech narsa yo'q edi, lekin qishloq xo'jalik maydonlari bir nechta kichik shaharlarga (xususan) joylashgan Elyton, ulardan Arlington Antebellum uyi, Birmingemning yagona, qoldiq). Boshqa narsa uchun uning iqtisodiy raison d'être kabi Shimoliy Rust Belt shaharlari bilan juda ko'p o'xshashliklarga ega edi Pitsburg va qo'tos janubdagi boshqa joylarga qaraganda. Fuqarolar urushi sobiq Konfederatsiyaga nafaqat vayronagarchiliklar va jismoniy halokatlar nuqtai nazaridan, balki jamiyat tuzilishi jihatidan ham butunlay vayronagarchiliklar keltirganligini anglash muhimdir. Antebellum yillarida Janubiy iqtisodiyot deyarli butunlay qishloq xo'jaligi, xususan ulkan paxta plantatsiyalari va boshqa mehnat talab qiladigan ekinlar - va yuqori qismida oq tanli er egalari, pastda qora qullar va kambag'al oq tirikchilik bilan qattiq sinf tizimiga asoslangan edi. qullar ustida faqat bir-ikki darajali fermerlar, oxirgi ikki guruhning har ikkalasi uchun ham harakatlanish umidlari kam. Ammo urushdan keyingi qullikning bekor qilinishi bu paradigmani o'zgarmas qilib qo'ydi. Ayni paytda, bu tarixda ham temir yo'llar Amerikaning shaharlararo transport va yuk tashishning asosiy usuli sifatida birinchi o'ringa chiqadigan vaqt bo'lgan edi va shunchaki janub bo'ylab qurilgan yangi temir yo'llarning ikkitasi kesishgan edi temir rudasi, ko'mir va ohaktosh - po'latni tayyorlash uchun ishlatiladigan asosiy ingredientlar bir-biriga yaqin bo'lgan dunyodagi oz sonli joylardan birida. Shunday qilib 1871 yilda tashkil topgan va munosib nomlangan Janubning urushdan keyingi birinchi yirik sanoat markazi tug'ildi Sanoat inqilobining beshigi sifatida tanilgan Britaniya shahri.

Sloss pechlari, Birmingemning sanoat davri yodgorligi.

Po'lat sanoati Birmingemga zudlik bilan va tez sur'atlar bilan o'sishni olib keldi - aslida shu qadar tezki, u taxallusni oldi "Sehrli shahar". Umuman olganda ham millat tez suratda urbanizatsiya va sanoatlashib borar edi va bu yangi Amerikaning ko'plab osmono'par binolari, kemalari, temir yo'llari, avtoulovlari, mashinalari va boshqa buyumlari Birmingemda soxta po'latdan yasalgan edi. Tegirmonlarda ish o'rinlari ochildi, ularni to'ldirish uchun arzon ishchi kuchi (yunon va italiyalik immigrantlarning doimiy oqimi, shuningdek atrofdagi qishloqlarning malakasiz ishchilari iltifot bilan) va ular bu ochiq havoda atigi bir necha daqiqa vaqt ketishini aytishdi. sof oq ko'ylak uchun sovigan havoda kul rangga aylanadi. Qisqasi, bu Birmingemning oltin davri edi. (Tashrif Sloss pechlari Birmingem tarixining ushbu davriga qiziquvchilar uchun juda zarurdir.)

1929 yilga kelib Birmingem 260 mingga yaqin aholini ko'paytirdi va janubdagi eng yirik shaharlardan biriga aylandi (faqat orqada) Yangi Orlean va Louisville va ozmi-ko'pmi bog'langan Atlanta). Ammo, albatta, 1929 yilda ham boshlandi Katta depressiya, bu po'lat ishlab chiqarish korxonalari va ishchi uylarni deyarli to'xtab qolishiga olib keldi - aslida o'sha paytdagi ko'plab iqtisodchilar Birmingemni Amerikadagi iqtisodiy inqirozdan eng ko'p zarar ko'rgan shahar sifatida ta'kidladilar. Shartlar yaxshilanganidan keyin ham, Depressiya natijasida sodir bo'lgan o'zgarishlar barqaror edi: Ikkinchi Jahon urushi va urushdan keyingi gullab-yashnagan yillarda ham, tegirmonlar yana to'liq quvvat bilan ishlay boshlaganda, og'ir sanoatdan uzoqlashish va oq yoqaga qarab bosqichma-bosqich siljish professional sohalar sezilarli edi.

Aynan shu o'tish davri sharoitida Birmingemning asosiy roli Fuqarolik huquqlari harakati tushunilishi kerak. O'tgan yillardagi tobora ko'payib borayotgan g'alabalar ro'yxati - harbiy kuchlar tomonidan degragatsiya Kichik tosh O'rta maktab va universiteti Missisipi, Ozodlik Rides, Montgomeri avtobusni boykot qilish - Doktor Martin Lyuter King va uning Janubiy nasroniy rahbariyati konferentsiyasi (SCLC) boshlandi "Birmingem kampaniyasi" 1963 yilda, ruhoniy Fred Shuttlesworth boshchiligidagi boshlang'ich mahalliy faollar jamoasiga qo'shildi Bethel Baptist cherkovi zavodning kerakli ish joylarida qolmaslik uchun kasal bo'lgan qora tanli jamoatchilikning muammolarini hal qilish. King va Shuttlesworth bilan to'qnash kelishdi Eugene "Bull" Connor, uzoq vaqtdan beri mahalliy siyosatchi, uning integratsiyasi va fuqarolik huquqlariga nisbatan haddan tashqari dushmanligi uni hatto janubiy oq tanlilar orasida taniqli va bir muncha bo'linuvchi shaxsga aylantirgan - va uning tabiatiga sodiq bo'lgan shafqatsizlikning eng taniqli sahnalari Fuqarolik huquqlari harakati Birmingemda bo'lib o'tdi. Boshqa har qanday narsa singari, bu doktor Kingning televizorning kuchini tushunishi uning zo'ravonliksiz strategiyasining muvaffaqiyati kaliti bo'lganligidan dalolat beradi: itlar itlar, yong'in shlanglari va politsiya shafqatsizligi hujumiga uchragan tinch namoyishchilar tasvirlari. Televizion yangiliklar Amerikaning yashash xonalariga kirib bordi, jamoatchilik fikrini segregatsiyaga qarshi qo'yishda va 1964 yildagi Fuqarolik huquqlari to'g'risidagi qonunning Kongress tomonidan qabul qilinishini ta'minlashda hal qiluvchi rol o'ynadi.

O'tgan yillarda Birmingem o'tmishdagi jinlarni quvish uchun juda ko'p ishladi va postindustrial ahvoldan bank, sug'urta markazi sifatida chiqdi, shuningdek, dunyo bo'ylab taniqli dasturlar tufayli Birmingemdagi Alabama universiteti va unga aloqador kasalxonalar - biomedikal tadqiqotlar. Ko'p yillik oq parvozlar va uning xizmatchilarining muammolaridan so'ng, Birmingem 21-asrda yoshlar tomonidan qayta kashf etilayotgan AQShning tobora ko'payib borayotgan saflariga qo'shildi. Besh ball janub, Tog'lar bog'iva Avondale yaxshi ovqatlanish va tungi hayot uchun mo'ljallangan joy sifatida paydo bo'lmoqda. Qadimgi Sehrli Siti uchun eng yaxshisi - 2021 yilgi mezbon shahar sifatida yana markazga chiqishga tayyor Jahon o'yinlari.

Iqlim

Birmingemdagi ob-havo juda farq qiladi. Qishki ob-havoni oldindan aytib bo'lmaydi, mavsum davomida harorat 20 ° F dan (-5 ° C) dan 60 ° gacha va hatto 70 ° F (15 ° yoki hatto 20 ° C) gacha o'zgarib turadi, tez-tez yomg'ir yog'adi va vaqti-vaqti bilan qor yog'adi. Yoz juda issiq va nam, tez-tez momaqaldiroq bo'ladi. Tashrif buyuradigan eng yaxshi vaqt - bahor va kuz, ob-havo yumshoq va yoqimli bo'lib, ko'pincha havoda shabada esadi. Hatto shahar chegaralarida ham dogwood, gilos, azalea va boshqa gullarning bahorgi namoyishiga ishonish kerak.

Ammo o'zining bahorgi hamkasbi bilan taqqoslaganda, ArtWalk o'zini juda jiddiy qabul qilmaganday tuyuladi: rassomlarni bir-biriga qarshi qo'yadigan raqobat yo'q, aksincha, yoshlar uchun juda ko'p mashg'ulotlar olib boradigan ma'qul va ayniqsa, oilaviy muhit.

Delta-style hot tamales are of course a well-known example of Mexican-inflected soul food cuisine, but at Delta Blues that fusion is carried over throughout the whole menu: if you're not hungry for tamales, the additional options split the difference between Tex-Mex specialties (tacos, nachos) and classic Southern-style home cooking with a Cajun bent (red beans and rice, fried chicken, crawfish étouffée). Laid-back and unpretentious ambience (befitting its location on a brick-paved side street) is a nice change of pace from the usual Five Points South trendiness. (yangilangan avgust 2019)

Remember the novel Fried Green Tomatoes, later turned into a movie starring Kathy Bates and Jessica Tandy? Well, this is the original "Whistle Stop Cafe" whose rendition of the namesake Southern-fried specialty inspired local novelist Fannie Flagg. Anything you ask for on the menu of will be delicious, but of course you kerak order the tomatoes. To drink is Coca-Cola straight out of the vintage bottle, or have an ice-cold glass of Southern sweet tea.

Locals are divided on what to think of the pho at Saigon Noodle House: some complain about imbalanced ingredients (heavy on noodles, light on meat) and an overall lack of authenticity; others rave about the generous portions at bargain prices. If you're hungry for something else, there's also a full slate of banh mi sandwiches, vermicelli noodle bowls, stir-fried mains with rice or noodles — even a kids' menu. The ambience is a cut above what you'd expect from a suburban strip-mall location, too. (yangilangan avgust 2019)

At this popular dining destination for Birmingham's new crop of hipsterati, the food is not quite Tex-Mex, not quite authentic Mexican, and way more culinarily innovative then you usually see in either of those types of restaurant. Tacos, quesadillas, tostadas, and full-size mains come with creative offbeat ingredients, but in middling portions that don't really justify the prices. Also: when El Barrio is crowded (which is basically all the time), the place gets loud, so unless you don't mind shouting, save the conversation for after dinner. (yangilangan avgust 2019)

Melt has been serving gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches to hungry Birminghamsters since 2011, first out of their food truck and now at their brick-and-mortar location in Avondale. The menu comprises about a half-dozen varieties that you can further customize with your choice of meats or veggie toppings, along with a few salads and appetizers. Quick and attentive service is all the more impressive given how busy the place constantly is. Good option for families. $10–15. (yangilangan oktyabr 2019)
33.506143-86.78086511 Rojo, 2921 Highland Ave S, ☏ 1 205-328-4733. Tu-Su 11AM-10PM. Rojo is a great neighborhood bar and grill where the food is good and reasonably priced, and the beer and wine selection is ample. Rojo also has a great outside sitting area that overlooks Caldwell Park and is especially popular during spring, summer, and fall. Rojo is good place to both eat and or grab a drink after work.

From the outside, Amore is a storefront in an anonymous-looking, ambience-free strip mall on a busy suburban arterial.

Hidden in plain sight amidst the bustle of downtown Birmingham, the Bistro 218 experience is elegant yet laid-back, with an impeccable ambience and a very-good-if-not-quite-"impeccable" menu of bistro-style specialties loosely based on French cuisine (try the duck confit), but with plenty of upscale-ified nods to good old-fashioned Southern home cooking in the mix too (blackened Louisiana redfish is a favorite).

Owned and operated by Frank Stitt, whose other Birmingham-area fine dining establishments include Chez Fonfon va Bottega, at Highlands the menu adds a soupçon of French flair to a substrate of upscale Contemporary Southern cuisine, the ambience is elegant if often loud, and the prices (especially on the topnotch wine list) fall firmly into "if you have to ask, you can't afford it" territory.

Among the most hyped restaurants in the über-trendy Five Points South neighborhood, but despite what you may be picturing, prices are fairly reasonable and the quality of the food lives up to its reputation. As you could probably guess from the name, seafood is the name of the game at Ocean, impeccably fresh and creatively prepared: head to the raw bar for delectable oysters, shrimp, clams, and lobster, or choose from a constantly-changing selection of alakart mains.

Retrofitted into a 1930s-era, Art Deco-style medical office building in Five Points South, the Hotel Indigo Birmingham, like all good hotels of the brand, leans into and embraces its unique history: white lab coats are part of the staff uniform, the elevator doors are still adorned with the old caduceus and other medical insignia, and yummy food and drinks are Chef Niko Romero's "prescription" at the Rx Lounge.

If you happen to be coming to town to receive treatment at one of the hospitals near UAB (or you're a loved one of someone to whom that applies), you'll find the Courtyard practically tailor-made for your needs: the hotel is connected to the hospital via skybridge, and staff is accustomed to going above and beyond to accommodate all manner of special medical considerations. But if you're just here as a tourist, you'll likely be dismayed by the location well away from any interesting sights, restaurants, or nightlife, and the overall old and tired feel to the place.

Common-sense rules apply for most of the city center, e.g. travel in groups at night, don't look like a tourist, avoid dark alleyways, etc. While the city has a reputation for crime, dangerous areas are generally far away from anywhere of interest to tourists. Avoid the areas north of the civic center and west of I-65.

By contrast, downtown is very well patrolled, and other than common sense against normal big city stuff (e.g. beggars asking for money), there is not much to worry about. The same is true of the Five Points South neighborhood, so if you're headed to one of the swanky restaurants, pubs, or dance clubs over there, there's no need to fear.

The downtown area has a supplemental bike patrol called CAP (City Action Partnership) to deter crime and assist visitors. ☏ 1 205-251-0111 for a free security escort, directions, assistance with a dead car battery, etc.

Suburbs

If retail therapy is in order, a 10-minute drive south from downtown on I-65 puts you in Hoover. The ambience is a bit plastic-fantastic but undeniably upscale, with all the shopping malls, chain restaurants, and big-box stores to slake your appetite for the familiar after taking in Birmingham's unique and funky city neighborhoods.
In the same direction as Hoover but even closer to town, Uy uyi is another upscale suburb, albeit one with character — especially in the charming little downtown area at the foot of Red Mountain. Homewood is also where you'll find Samford University, home of the Alabama Men's Hall of Fame — and Division I football and basketball tickets that are a good sight cheaper than games at UAB.
If you'd rather sink your teeth further into the Birmingham area's industrial history, and a little bit of grit doesn't faze you, head down I-20 to the working-class suburb of Bessemer, where much of Alabama's steel industry in the 20th century played out. The mills have mostly been idle since the 1970s, and the city's struggles with unemployment and its attendant problems are plain to see, but monuments to the good old days abound — check out the Tannehill Ironworks just outside of town. And if you'd like to "sink your teeth into" something else, Bessemer is also a rather unlikely foodie destination, home to Alabama's oldest operating restaurant and some of the best barbecue around these parts.

"Roll Tide" is the phrase that pays in Tuscaloosa, the college town and former state capital that lies about an hour southwest of Birmingham along I-20. There's plenty of history, art, and culture to be found among the oak-lined streets of the "Druid City", but undoubtedly the main attraction is the University of Alabama itself — especially on football game days, when Bryant-Denny Stadium has been known to pack in over 100,000 fans (more than the population of the city!)
A 45-minute drive northward along I-65 will put you in Cullman, home to St. Bernard Abbey, the only Benedictine abbey in Alabama. The Ave Maria Grotto, a miniature fairytale land on the grounds of the abbey, has been a favorite among visitors since it opened in 1934.
Press further northward into the mountains and the next big city you'll come to is Huntsville. Formerly a sleepy cotton town, Huntsville shot to prominence in the years after World War II, when the U.S. government sent Dr. Wernher Von Braun and his team of scientists to the Redstone Arsenal to design missiles for the army. A decade later, NASA came to town and set up the Marshall Space Center to develop the propulsion system that would soon put American astronauts on the Moon, and... well, you can see why they call it the "Rocket City".
Head the other direction on I-65, and in about an hour and a half you're in Alabama's state capital, Montgomery, a city replete with history, mostly of the unsavory variety — former capital of the Confederacy; home of one of the most active slave-trading markets in the U.S. in the years before the Civil War; site of Rosa Parks' infamous bus boycott. Montgomery wrestles with the ghosts of its past at the National Memorial for Peace & Justice, but it's not all somber reflection here: there's also a renowned Shakespeare Festival, a turn-of-the-century downtown turned living-history museum, and other cultural attractions.
Sure, Birmingham is Alabama's biggest city. But for the Southern metropolitan experience par excellence, head about two hours east along I-20 to Atlanta, where big-league sports, world-class cultural institutions, cutting-edge cuisine, and urban-style hustle and bustle await.
