Blue Bird Hardware and Seed is a historic building in Mobile, Alabama. It was built in 1955 in Mid-century modern style. It was opened as an agricultural supply store, as the area was largely undeveloped and rural at the time.[2] The building was renovated in 2017 to serve several retail tenants.[3]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018.[1]
