The Marvel City
is Ready
to Make History...
school system, water works, electric company, and a health director
(which was very important). Construction of roads, houses,
churches, and businesses to meet the needs of the workers and the
new residents was started in earnest. The young town of Bessemer
also bragged of The Hotel Montezuma; dismantled and shipped by
rail to Bessemer, this building was actually the Mexican Exhibit at
the1884-1885 New Orleans Exposition. DeBardeleben even had
the forethought to care for future generations by establishing a park
in the downtown area. Today, an original Viquesney Dough Boy
Statue which honors those who paid the ultimate price in World
War I is the focal point of DeBardeleben Park.
History
Nestled in the lower foothills of the Appalachian range lies Jones
Valley. Distributed throughout this area was black gold – no, not the
liquid kind, but rich seams of coal. The ingredients for an industrial
iron and steel making center, which would rival any in the United
States, were in close proximity - iron ore, coal, and limestone. Rail
lines crossed the area thereby providing easy movement of raw
materials, people, and finished products. A city called Birmingham
was emerging and blast furnaces were dotting the landscape.
Armed with a vision, a blueprint of a well laid out city to be called
Brooklyn, and investors with at least $100,000 each, Henry Fairchild
DeBardeleben (son-in-law of Alabama’s first millionaire Daniel
Pratt) embarked on his mission. On April 12, 1887 the first lots were
sold, totaling more than $400,000 by the close of the day—the City
of Bessemer was born! Henry had changed the name to something
more appropriate for iron making (Sir Henry Bessemer in England
had invented the Bessemer converter which changed the iron/steel
making process). By the end of the first year, Bessemer’s population
had grown so rapidly, the town was dubbed “The Marvel City”.
The town quickly established a functioning government, its own
Tannehill Valley: Covered Bridge
A local newspaper of 1900 predicted that by the year 2000, the
city of Bessemer would stretch 100 miles. By the 1920s Bessemer
ranked the fourth largest city in Alabama and persisted in fulfilling
that earlier newspaper prediction.
Tannehill on the Creek
Life continued in Bessemer. A search through old Bessemer
newspapers reiterates the fact that history repeats itself with each
generation. Newspapers reported good news, bad news, and a lot
of advertisement; today television and other electronic devices
provide the same type of information. Births, deaths, and weddings
occurred; the flu bug seemed to transcend the years; accidents
happened; elections were held; government officials were at odds;
businesses came and went.
Over the years, however, poor leadership at local, state, and national
levels brought recessions, depressions, and other economic woes
to Bessemer. Fires destroyed many early landmarks, while heavy
reliance on a few industries brought economic downturns as more
jobs were outsourced and demands for some products dwindled or
disappeared.
1900 provides timeless advice to the people of Bessemer for any
generation: Show to the world that the Marvel City is alive and
in the march of progress, that she knows no backward step, and
here can be found a generous people, proud of their city, their
progress, and anxious to let the world know of her success and the
enterprise of her people.
And now, over 125 years later, the City of Bessemer still stands
through many trials and tribulations! Most of the smoke is gone The Marvel City is ready...Are You?
because the industries have changed Passenger trains
no longer stop in Bessemer, many of the mines have
been “worked out”, and there are no longer livery
stables or bicycle repair shops downtown to serve the
citizens. But Bessemer still thrives! Why?
The true wealth of Bessemer lies in her people—those
who came to create better lives for themselves and
their families, those who stayed, and those who used
their talents to continue a vision of the founders of the
Marvel City. Today, entrepreneurship still flourishes
and dreams for the city continue. The people of this
city realize that the city is always changing, reforming,
revitalizing, adapting—to meet the needs of a global
economy. The people have survived over 125 years
of change and so has the city!
A quote from The Bessemer Workman on June 13,
Henry Sweet Home
By the 1980s, Bessemer had reached 33% unemployment.
Diversification of industry became the buzz word for survival. And
diversify she did! New industry was recruited and small businesses
were encouraged to grow. Jobs returned and the city once again
began recovery from yet another recession.

residents of Bessemer and
West Jefferson County. This
local Bessemer hospital has
seen many changes since it first
opened as Bessemer Memorial
in 1964.
In 1973, Medical West became part of
the Carraway system and was renamed
Bessemer Carraway. In 2002, the hospital
became UAB Medical West when it joined
the UAB Health System. Most recently,
the hospital became a healthcare authority
(2006) and is now known as Medical West,
an affiliate of the UAB Health System.
convenience of Medical West family practice and internal
medicine health centers in their neighborhoods.
Over the past several years, the hospital has added many new
services and new state of the art technology. The Medical
West Advanced Wound Center, which houses two hyperbaric
oxygen chambers, opened in August 2010. The clinic averages
around 4,000 visits each year. In 2012, Medical West opened
HealthWorks, an Occupational Medicine clinic that currently
serves many of our local businesses with health
care for their employees. Also in 2012, the hospital
added a new 64 slice CT Scanner with Cardiac
capabilities and Digital Mammography. Recent
hospital renovations include the new Women’s
Center and a 25-bed Geriatric Psych Unit.
In addition to our local hospital we have the

We Are Ready For Development...
Are You?
Submitted by Theodore J. vonCannon, Executive Director of the Jefferson County Economic and Industrial Development Authority
During the last one hundred and fifty years no community in the
southern part of the United States has relied more on industrial
production than the Birmingham-Bessemer Alabama region.
It truly has been the lifeblood for growth for the entire region.
And to a lesser degree that is still true however there has been
great diversification of the workforce in recent years. Currently
the strongest industrial and distribution growth numbers are
in the West Jefferson County/Bessemer area. This growth
is based on a number factors including: many available sites,
existing buildings, utilities on site, great transportation access,
a high quality work force, excellent labor-management relations
with existing industries, very reasonable cost of doing business
and most importantly very pro-business oriented governments.
There are presently thirteen industrial/business parks located
within ten miles of each other in the Bessemer area. The parks
range in size from 9 acres to 740 acres and are very diversified,
and eleven of these parks are owned by private owners or by
the city of Bessemer and have space available for upscale office
operations, warehouse-distribution facilities and heavy and light
manufacturing. Many of the parks have rail access.
In addition, the Jefferson County Economic Development
Authority (JCEIDA) maintains and operates two large parks in
the Bessemer area. The JCEIDA properties, known as Jeff Met, are
first class operations that have a high quality clientele. Companies
such as Home Depot, Mercedes Benz, Wells Fargo and Blue
Cross-Blue Shield call Jeff Met home. Of the two JCEIDA parks,
Jeff Met Lakeshore is primarily an office oriented data center
site with approximately 120 acres available for development.

Bessemer is Ready
for Retail Development....
BESSEMER AREA RETAIL DEVELOPMENT
22
Located near shopping mecas such as Letson Farms, Hoover’s
Galleria, The Summit, Downtown Birmingham, Tuscaloosa, all of
which add to the uniqueness that is Downtown Bessemer, the area
is a shoppers heaven. Surrounding the City are interstates which
provide easy access to any shopping adventure. I459, I20/59, and
Hwy 150 offer convenient paths to shops ready to serve you.
chains, local shops and small unique retailers. From sporting
goods at one of the South’s most noted stores, Simmons Sporting
Goods, to the rare antique and hand made wares at the Paisley Pig,
downtown Bessemer is a great shopping experience. Furniture
row is downtown with Standard Furniture and As Is Furniture,
United Textiles for those unique rugs and soft goods. Amazing
and thrifty, that marks the downtown area. For an additional
adventure in shopping roam northern Shelby, Bibb and eastern
Tuscaloosa Counties.
Retail
Retail developers will find a climate that is business friendly, from
the State Government in Montgomery, the Jefferson County
Commission, to the City of Bessemer. Mayor Kenneth Gulley
and the City Council are working tirelessly to spread the word,
Bessemer is open to business. Contact the City or the Chamber
for information.
The business community working through the Chamber
promotes the theme of Buy Bessemer First. We live by that
policy and encourage our citizens to follow it, support our local
businesses and shop local. Small business is the heart blood of any
community and Bessemer is blessed with some of the best.
Retail customers look for convenience, quality, price and
uniqueness. The Bessemer area has it all. Discount stores, major
We have great business leaders such as Jerry Cherner (Jefferson
Realty), Keith Pennington (Medical West), B.K. “Skipper”
Goodwin (First Financial), John & Faye Anderson (Manufacturing
Packaging), Hank Tyler (Henry H. Tyler Enterprises), Don
Holmes, Joe Adams (ADCO), Vaughn Burrell (Long Lewis)
and many, many more. Small to Large businesses, retail to
manufacturing, we have leadership at all levels. Always working for
Bessemer are local business owners: Joni Holt (Holt Insurance),
Anthony Underwood (Anthony Underwood Automotive), Billy
Parsons (CPA), Stacey Craig (Bright Star) and Van Sykes (Bob
Sykes BBQ). These are leaders by example.
In civic affairs the leadership continues with elected officials at
all levels of government knowing that economic development is
primary to making the area a true dream. The Mayor of Bessemer,
Kenneth Gulley, is a past Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce.
Sarah Belcher, a City Council member, is a Chamber Ambassador.
The other members of the Council, Ron Marshall, David Vance,
Donna Thigpen, Cleo King, Chester Porter, and Jesse Mathews
all work for or own businesses in the area. These civic servants
are area assets for our business community. Put the local leaders
together with County Commissioner Jimmie Stephens, State
Senator Priscilla Dunn, plus State Representatives Alan Farley
and Lawrence McAdory, you have a team focused on growing the
businesses in Bessemer and western Jefferson County.
Located at the intersection of major interstate highways,
crisscrossed by rail lines, access to a vital waterway and having
its own local airport, Bessemer is located in a business friendly
area. Add to this our own Bessemer Airport, the most modern
communications systems available (ATT), abundant electrical
supply (TVA and Alabama Power), a duel water system (Bessemer
Water and Birmingham Water), and all the natural gas you
could ask for from Alagasco. The “corridor” from Bessemer to
Tuscaloosa along I 20/59 ranks as one of the nation’s top industrial
development corridors in the nation. Most communities can only
dream of what is available in western Jefferson County.
We Are Ready for
Development,
continued from page 20
Immediately adjacent to the McCalla
Jeff Met Park is the new Birmingham
Norfolk Southern Intermodal Facility.
The McCalla Park is also located less
than one mile from Intestate 20/59 and
less than three miles from Interstate 459.
Also, Mercedes Benz, North America is
located less than 15 miles west of Jeff Met
McCalla.
Location is everything and the western
Jefferson County region has it all. Poised
between Tuscaloosa and Birmingham
on one of the fastest growing industrial
development corridors in the nation, the
Bessemer Area has the facilities and sites
to attract a diversity of business expansion.
We are ready to help you locate with other
successful businesses.
With a county population of more than
600,000 residents, Jefferson County
and the Bessemer area can provide the
workforce and support services for any
type of business. As the fastest growing
area of Jefferson County, the Bessemer
region looks forward to welcoming new
businesses to the area, while providing
support and assistance to existing
companies. In addition, the Bessemer
business community has an incubator
for beginning businesses that helps small
businesses get a start, its own airport
for business use and a Mayor and City
Council that are focused on bringing
jobs and growth to the Bessemer area.
Bessemer is a great place to work and live.
Let us show you we are ready to help you
grow.
Jeff Met McCalla consists of 734 acres
with manufacturing operations and
warehousing/assembly/and distribution
facilities located there. This park is directly
served by Norfolk Southern Rail main
line.

BESSEMER AREA EDUCATION
24
We are Ready
To Help Educate
Your Work Force
and Your Children
As parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, etc., we should all be
readily involved with our local schools. Do we know what
is happening in the schools and do we hold the educators
accountable? Do we read to our own children? Can we spend
time helping a child read? Are we there on workdays and clean
up projects? Do we support the teachers and administrators? As
businesses, do we hire the educated work force we need?
Bessemer City, McAdory, Oak Grove, and Hueytown High
Schools, as well as Bessemer Academy are ready to educate
our next generation workforce. Partnered with Lawson State
Community College and ITT Tech these high schools focus not
only on preparing our students for college but for the technical
skills industry requires. Our business community takes pride in
our community schools and providing a ready work force.
University, Samford University, Birmingham-Southern College,
Miles College and the University of Alabama-Birmingham are
outstanding education providers.
As homeowners and business owners, the better the school
system is in our area, the more valuable our property becomes.
Homeowners and business people know the value of a quality
school and providing our children with a quality education. The
Bessemer business community is doing those things that will
improve the quality of education and the quality of the schools.
This includes facing the difficult problems and making the hard
decisions such as how to adequately fund our schools.
Educate
Lawson State Community College impacts the region in a
positive and professional way. Not only has it had a regional
impact but it also impacts all of the cities located in our area
especially Bessemer. Lives have been enriched because of the
availability of education, training, and growth in our work force
in this region due to Lawson State Community College. The
entire western area business community praises Lawson State for
its contributions to our economy. Maya Angelou said it this way,
“I have learned that people will forget what you said, people will
forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made
them feel.” Lawson State makes us feel capable, ready for success.
The other education shining light in western Jefferson County is
ITT Technical Institute located at Exit 6 on I-459. It is a jewel
in our economic development recruitment package. The faculty
and staff at ITT Tech go about their service to the community
with humility and professionalism. The employees follow the
example of their leadership in this statement from Jonas Salk
when he said, “I feel that the greatest reward for doing is the
opportunity to do more.”
With major universities located within driving distance, a young
person can be ready for any career and this can be realized while
staying close to home. The University of Alabama, Montevallo
The Chamber’s efforts include the Adopt-a-School program which
is an easy way for local businesses to be involved in our schools.
This takes some time but not much if any money. A business can
be involved with the school of its choice in reading, mentoring,
and participating with the students and teachers. This is a simple
process that gets a company recognition and helps the schools at
the same time.
It is appropriate that we remember the dedication and sacrifice of
all those involved in the education of our children on the local level.
Those that truly care about
education are found working
in the schools, helping
teachers, and asking what
more they can do. Bessemer
business people have a
selfish reason to be both
supportive and involved with
our schools. These young
people will be the men and
women who soon will be our
employees, leaders, decision
makers and bosses. They are
the work force of the future
and our job is to ready them
for the future.

Bessemer Is Ready To Serve

Since its inception in 1907, The Bright Star Restaurant has been located in
downtown Bessemer, and it has been a fixture in Bessemer’s Realty Building
for 97 out of those 105 years. In a sense, The Bright Star has grown with
downtown Bessemer, beginning as a 30 seat restaurant and having evolved
into the 300 seat restaurant it is today. The Restaurant receives pedestrian
traffic from individuals shopping at local merchants such as Simmons Sporting
Goods, United Textiles, and Standard Furniture. The downtown location has
increased its banquet business with large groups such as The Bessemer Board
of Realtors and other civic organizations. Easy access off the I-20/59 Interstate
exit 112 also enables The Bright Star to attract guests from Birmingham and
Tuscaloosa as well as surrounding counties. Fortunate
