We’re excited to finally share this project, as it’s something we’ve been working on for a few months. 2025 marks the 10-year anniversary of some major milestones for the City of Pell City, so Mayor Pruitt and the City Council felt a brief look at the past was in order.
Back in 2015, projects like Premiere Cinemas and the Pell City Splash Pad were first coming into view and, as we’ve learned since, projects like those were merely a signal for what was to come for our community.
Over the past 10 years, among other milestones, Pell City added 1,000 new homes, 1,800 new jobs, and invested more than $35 million into capital improvement initiatives that support our residents.
Through sustainable growth, we’ve become a place for families to live and to thrive. And we feel like that’s worth celebrating.
We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who has played a part in our journey: from citizens, volunteers, and community leaders who have supported these efforts, to event attendees, local businesses, and community organizations that contribute daily to the vibrancy of Pell City. Thank you for being a part of a decade of progress, and creating a future of opportunity for our town.
This project wouldn’t have been possible without the help of CEPA, Visit St. Clair, and The St. Clair County Economic Development Council, who provided valuable footage and information.
