The Plot is a community gathering space in the heart of Downtown Norfolk constructed of materials reclaimed from the existing site and other city sources. The Plot promises to bring new life to site and the City alike by creating a temporary commons complete with an entertainment amphitheater, space for vendors and mobile eateries, and public art, providing the perfect setting to sit and catch up with friends, take the dog for a walk, or throw the ball around. It also serves to celebrate Norfolk's past, present and ultimate future by paying homage to the structures that once occupied this historic neighborhood, making a dormant piece of the city's landscape viable again and ushering in the creativity and resiliency of a district on the verge.
In addition to hosting casual meet ups, The Plot can be used for organized special events, which may require a special permit. Contact the Downtown Norfolk Council six weeks in advance of the event for guidelines and an application.
