Colonial Heights, located between Old Shell Rd and Airport Blvd, is a residential and commuter Mobile neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and leafy streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Old Shell Rd corridor near the Spring Hill College edge, where local eateries, small storefronts, and steady campus-day energy set the tone. Housing leans toward brick one-stories and tidy lots, with a calm, lived-in streetscape. Spring Hill College adds a collegiate backdrop and walkable green space. For local pillars, the Mobile Museum of Art and the Bragg-Mitchell Mansion anchor nearby culture, while Callaghan’s Irish Social Club supplies a long-running music-room feel. The geography tracks west of Midtown, with quick routes toward parks and the bayfront.

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.
