Those of you that don’t want to fight the crowds at Boutwell Auditorium to see Larry Langford take the oath of office only need to queue up the video on NBC13.com or myFoxAL.com to watch. The fun starts at 12 p.m. local time.
Both television stations are planning to do a live stream of the ceremonies this morning. There will also be a community celebration for the new mayor beginning after the ceremonies are scheduled to end, approximately 1:30 p.m. also in the area around the Boutwell Auditorium (so at least try and come on out for that).
Those that want to know outgoing mayor Bernard Kincaid’s thoughts about his eight years in office and his plans for the future should just head on over to the Fox 6 site, where an interview conducted by Janice Rogers resides.

Birmingham will soon have it’s own modern day mercantile as a recent string of downtown business openings continue. The sign covering the windows of 2320 2nd Avenue North seem to say it all. The business promises sandwiches, antiques, baked goods and home goods among other things (including one more location for free wifi access).
The one sign you can’t read is the one in the door saying that we all need to stop by come mid-November to see what Urban Standard will be like.
