Blakeley
Blakeley is a ghost town with an interesting history. In 1813, entrepreneur and adventurer Josiah Blakeley purchased 7,000 acres of land north of Mobile Bay and formed the town of Blakeley. It was officially incorporated by the state of Alabama in 1820 and served as the county seat for Baldwin County from 1810-1868. The area is now part of the Historic Blakeley State Park. Today, areas in and around Historic Blakeley State Park offer unique places to live near nature.
Malbis
The magnificent Malbis Memorial Church on State Highway 181 is the only remnant left of the original early 1900s Greek settlement in this area. Now the area has become bustling with shopping centers and neighborhoods that claim either Spanish Fort or Daphne as their city.
