On the north side of Arlington – West End is the Princeton Baptist Medical Center. The large medical center is not only a major employer in the area, providing numerous professional positions, it is also an important source of major medical care. Near the hospital are Walgreens and CVS Pharmacies.
One of the biggest draws to this side of Birmingham is the beautiful Greek style home of Judge William S Mudd, one of the founders of Birmingham. The home was built in the mid 1800s and is better known as the Arlington Antebellum Home and Gardens and located off of Cotton Avenue. Beautifully restored, the home plays host to a great collection of 19th century art and furnishings. The gardens are also quite popular and really bring out the beauty of the property.
