Lumen is the second phase of urban living completed by BOKA Powell and Birmingham-based developer Corporate Realty in the Railroad Park area, just north of the University of Alabama-Birmingham Medical Center. The project includes 205 market rate residential units (439 beds) in 13 unit types, ranging from efficiencies and one bedrooms, to two, three, and four-bedroom configurations. Some units include a spiral staircase connecting living and sleeping areas. Parking is provided in a concrete podium, with a single level below grade and two levels above grade, with an additional 31 spaces along the south side of the property, for a total of 335 spaces. Ground floor shell space is provided for a restaurant and boutique office tenants. Three courtyards provide amenity space for tenants, including a pool deck, an activity deck overlooking 14th Street, and a quiet, contemplative space in the interior of the development.
