Here is your update.

If the vote ended today, Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum would take the honor.

Of course, the vote does not end on January 7th, it concludes on January 15th. You still have a little more than a week to cast your vote.

Who is going to win? Below is the listing of iconic attractions in and around the Magic City.
Can Barber hold on? Will the Birmingham Botanical Gardens or Vulcan make a run?
