New entertainment venue coming to former The Hive site in Five Points South
Reading time: 2 minutes
Urban Parc, a dining and entertainment venue, is moving into the former site of The Hive (1006 20th St. South) in the heart of the Five Points South Entertainment District.
On January 31st, the Birmingham City Council approved Urban Parc’s liquor license, clearing a major hurdle for the establishment.
What to Expect
Urban Parc is the brainchild of Draper Mason, the owner of Urban Smoke Bar and Grill in Fairfield. According to the Birmingham Business Journal, the new entertainment venue will include the following:
- Upscale dining experience
- Rooftop bar
- Cinema called Views
A Destination
Located next to Homewood Suites and only a block away from the famous Five Points “Storyteller Fountain” — Urban Parc is launching its venture at the right time.
Five Points South has been in the middle of a “building boom” over the past few years.
Across from the 17 story Scholars Birmingham opened in 2020 and the Tower on Tenth, the old Trades Tower is being redeveloped. Nearby, Southern Research is also expanding.
Stay Tuned
With a new license in hand, we expect the Urban Parc to open soon. Stay tuned to Bham Now for its upcoming opening.
