Five new building permits were issued this past week for construction projects exceeding $1 million across the state of Alabama. These new building permits are spread across the state — with two in North Alabama, one in Tallapoosa County, one in the Birmingham metro and another in the Montgomery area.

New venue in Prattville

Part of an ongoing project to revitalize downtown Prattville, a new outdoor entertainment venue is under construction at 124 West Main St. This is the site of the former Hancock Whitney Bank location, and the project was approved last fall.

More details:

The venue will contain a large multiuse pavilion, a covered stage for live performances, a canopy-covered seating area, a movie screen for shows and sporting events, multiuse space for recreational games, lighting and a sound system.
A new entryway will lead into the area, and green space will be developed around the stage.
The site will include a new walking path with trees and seating as well.
The lead contractor on this project is Construction One, Inc.
