Life on 4th was approved by the Tuscaloosa City Council last fall, amid some controversy. However, the project is moving forward, as the $18 million permit was issued last week.

Here’s what we know about this project:

  • The complex will include more than 14,000 square feet of commercial or office space on its first floor.
  • Developers will build 190 bedrooms in 90 units and will feature above-ground and underground parking for tenants.
  • The concept includes studios and one, two, and three-bedroom units that are expected to lease from $900 to $2,550 per month, depending on the unit layout.
  • Southeastern Construction Partners is listed as the lead contractor.
