What REV is doing now

REV Birmingham is a place-based revitalization and economic development nonprofit on a mission to create vibrant commercial districts.

From 2023 to 2025, we are executing a strategic plan to support entrepreneurs who dream of filling vacant spaces across the city, implement the City Center Master Plan in several downtown districts identified as strategic opportunity areas, and work with the Woodlawn community to strengthen their commercial district.

View our slides detailing our work below, and reach out to schedule a presentation from our team if you’d like to know more. We love to share with civic, industry and social organizations as well as interested investors about REV’s vision and how we intend to get there!
