What's special

Built in 1947, Highland Towers first opened its doors for modern apartment leasing in 1951. This building is rich with history, and hosts some of the best views of the city. With affordable apartments, you can easily get out and enjoy the city and all it has to offer without over extending that budget. Managed professionally by Farris Properties, which is a locally owned and operated management company, the property has seen some renovations and improvements over the last few years, with changes progressing every year. Highland Towers gets better with age!

Zip code 35205 covers Birmingham’s Southside—Five Points South, Highland Park, and Glen Iris—where leafy, hilly streets climb Red Mountain and the climate is warm, humid, and mild in winter. Historic apartments and stately homes sit beside UAB’s campus and medical district, attracting students, healthcare workers, and long‑time locals. Daily life is easy with Publix at 20 Midtown, neighborhood pharmacies, the Starbucks at UAB’s Hill Student Center, and standout dining from Bottega and Chez Fonfon to Surin West and Dreamland BBQ; nights buzz around Five Points with patios and music at Zydeco. Green escapes include Rhodes, Caldwell, and Rushton parks plus Highland Park Golf Course, and you’re minutes to downtown with quick access to I‑65 and US‑31/280. The area is walkable and pet friendly, with many dog‑welcoming patios. Recent Zillow market trends show a median rent near $1,300, with most listings in the past few months ranging about $1,000–$1,900.
