Bridge Street offers a wide variety of shops and restaurants.

Ownership change and expansion

In May 2012, Bridge Street was purchased from O&S Holdings by Miller Capital Advisory. In February 2013, Bayer Properties, L.L.C. was named as management and leasing company for the property. With news of the purchase, both the new owners and the city of Huntsville announced an expansion for the development. Phase 3, which began in January 2013, includes a two-level, 170,000 square foot flagship Belk department store, 45,000 square feet of new retail space in four additional buildings, and new surface and deck parking. This addition is being built where the western portion of the lake once was located. Like several of the stores in the development, Belk moved from an existing location in the city, leaving empty retail space behind. Belk opened at Bridge Street in Fall 2014.
