Forest Highland, located between Old Shell Rd and Dauphin St, is a residential and historic Mobile neighborhood with oak-canopied streets and early-20th-century architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Old Shell Rd corridor near the Spring Hill Avenue area, where small storefronts, local eateries, and campus-day foot traffic set a steady rhythm. Housing leans toward brick cottages, porch-front bungalows, and larger revival-style homes on deep lots. Sidewalk blocks and mature trees shape a walk-and-stroll feel, while nearby institutions keep the area active beyond daylight hours. Green space and neighborhood parks add a calm counterpoint to the main-road bustle.

Single-Family Residential Districts
These districts are composed of both developed and largely undeveloped areas. The developed areas contain mainly one-family dwellings and small open areas, usually subdivided, where residential development seems likely to occur; few two-family and multiple-family dwellings are found in these developed areas. It is anticipated that most of the large undeveloped areas will ultimately be developed for residential use. The district regulations are designed to protect the residential character of the developed areas by prohibiting commercial activities and encouraging a suitable neighborhood environment for family life.
