My family is aghast that I would venture into actual Birmingham from Pleasant Grove and Bessemer. You can enter the genealogy building either by parking in the main library parking lot and going up to the third floor and walk across the skywalk in the Southern History Building ( 2 floors of documents), or you can park on the street on Park Place between the Tutwiler and the side of the Southern History Building and enter from the Linn Park entrance. There are meters but I don't think you have to feed them on weekends. Anyway, the building is across 21st street from the main library.
