UPCOMING

Recommendations to revitalize Norfolk's Norview and Five Points area will be presented to the public by the Young Architects Forum on Tuesday, at 7:30 p.m. in the Norview Presbyterian Church, 1066 Norview Ave.

The architects volunteered to help the Five Points area and have worked with the community since early this year.

On June 21, they held an all-day charrette - an intensive community brainstorming and planning workshop - to explore the ideas of residents, merchants and others with a stake in Five Points' future.

The work aims to identify goals and produce guidelines to help Five Points become safer, attract compatible businesses, improve traffic flow and bring neighbors together.

The Young Architects Forum is a committee of the Hampton Roads chapter of the American Institute of Architects. Forum members are professionals with fewer than 10 years' experience, interns and students.

Light refreshments will be provided at Tuesday's gathering. Seating is limited. For details, call Bev Sell, coordinator of the Five Points Partnership, 857-1794.
