REV recently brought the inaugural Five Points South Summer Sampler to life at Brother Bryan Park! This event was produced by REV as part of our work managing the Downtown BHM Business Improvement District (BID). In case you didn’t know, creating vibrant, welcoming public spaces is a big part of what we do — and the Summer Sampler was a perfect example of that work in action!

We’re grateful to our friends at Public Works and our stellar CAP Ambassadors, whose support helped keep the park clean and safe as guests enjoyed an evening of great food and live music.

Recently, our summer intern, Jack, officially wrapped up his time with REV! In true REV fashion, we celebrated with a great meal at Paramount and even better conversation about what’s next as he continues his academic journey.
 
Thank you, Jack, for all of your hard work this summer. We wish you the very best in what’s ahead and hope our paths cross again someday as a fellow yaysayer!

Historic preservation is truly a community effort. That’s why we are continuing the celebration throughout the rest of the year! So, we hit the street to chat directly with the people who make this work so meaningful.

From cherished landmarks to neighborhood memories, our community is at the heart of preservation — and we loved hearing what historic preservation means to you!
