Northport River Walk

The Hugh Rowe Thomas Bridge is a six-lane, girder bridge spanning the Black Warrior River along U.S. Route 43 and Alabama State Route 69, connecting downtown Tuscaloosa and Northport in Tuscaloosa County, Alabama, that opened in 1974. The bridge is split in Tuscaloosa to accommodate two major, one-way thoroughfares (Lurleen Wallace Boulevard North and South), before joining together heading towards Northport.

The Northport Historic District comprises the central business district of Northport, Alabama. The district comprises 20 blocks and 134 structures, dating mainly to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly 1920-1925, when the town was rebuilt after a period of decline caused by an 1850 fire and the American Civil War.
