Regent Park residents will tell their stories at a news conference on Apr. 2. |
At a news Conference, residents will tell the real story about what is happening in their neighbourhood
Join members of the Regent Park community who will speak first-hand about what the revitalization means to them, as Phase One is complete and Phase Two is well underway.
As early as the 1960’s, Regent Park residents were concerned about the deterioration of their homes, lack of streets and stigma. In 1995, residents got the attention of government and moved forward with a dream that took 17 years to come to fruition.
Come hear the stories from those who have been impacted the most through this revitalization.
