They do look really boring and cookie cutter... but, this isn't really something endemic to Birmingham. This huge apartment projects being constructed all around the country are pretty uninspired in their architecture so it's not really all that surprising. Given time, maybe it will change. I really wish this projects would draw from the design of Regions Field, that would be a really interesting neighborhood to look at.
