About

Westhill

Westhill, located between Airport Boulevard and Cottage Hill Road, is a residential and suburban Mobile neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a leafy, low-rise feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Airport Blvd–University Blvd corridor, where local eateries, service storefronts, and campus-day energy set the pace. Nearby pillars include the Mobile Museum of Art, the Mobile Botanical Gardens, and the Bragg-Mitchell Mansion. Curving blocks and deep lots give many homes a set-back-from-the-street rhythm, with mature trees shaping the sidewalks. Green space and trail-style walks around Langan Park add an outdoorsy counterpoint to the retail corridors. Commutes and errands tend to orbit Airport Boulevard, while evenings feel quieter on the interior streets.

R-1

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.

Permitted uses

Include but are not limited to:

Housing-Group
Housing-Single unit
