Construction now underway for major downtown development across from the VBC

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WHNT) — A long-awaited construction project in downtown Huntsville is now underway. Developers of the project say they are excited to see “dirt finally being moved.”

Front Row is a multi-million dollar mixed-use development being built on the former site of the Coca-Cola Bottling plant at the intersection of Clinton Avenue and Monroe Street. The site is directly across from the Von Braun Center.
