Completed in 1925, the Pizitz was home of the eponymous landmark department store owned by Louis Pizitz, a Jewish immigrant who turned a modest dry goods mercantile into a regional retail empire. The property was completely renovated and reopened in 2016. It features 143 luxury residences, an award winning food-hall, coworking space, and an art-house theater that together have catalyzed the renaissance of downtown Birmingham
