About
Bridge Street Town Centre is your one-stop spot for shopping, dining, entertainment, and more!
This outdoor lifestyle facility opened in 2007 to meet the needs of a growing and dynamic region. Strategically situated near Interstate 565 and Cummings Research Park, Bridge Street is a benchmark for modern retail and entertainment development.
This 825,000-square-foot complex features more than 50 retail shops and specialty boutiques alongside 20 dining options that range from casual to upscale. Recognizable names like Belk, lululemon, and Sephora combine with local merchants to cater to various tastes and budgets.
Families and movie buffs can catch a show at the Cinemark theater, while elegance at the Westin and Element hotels provides guests with over 380 luxurious rooms.
Bridge Street originally had a sparkling 10-acre lake, but developers repurposed it for expanding retail space. Today, a charming five-acre lake remains, offering features like walking trails and a carousel.
The Centre comes alive at night when live music fills the air with hit songs and dance grooves. The holidays and other seasonal events add luster and excitement with their lights and decorations.
Its central location puts it close to other landmarks like the US Space & Rocket Center and the Huntsville Botanical Garden. Such convenience makes visiting these in a day easy to plan.
With so much to see, explore, and experience, adding Bridge Street to your vacation itinerary is a must!

The complex is pet-friendly, with many vendors allowing your animal to accompany you into the store. Just look for the dog-friendly sticker on the merchant's door or window. Aside from pets being on a leash, check out the other requirements on the site's Code of Conduct.
Children of all ages enjoy taking a spin on the carousel. Located behind H&M and overlooking the lake, it's a festive opportunity that your kids won't want to miss. Prices are reasonable; hours are Monday through Saturday, 12 to 8 PM, and 12 to 6 PM on Sunday.
