STANLEY PARK RENO...GOODBYE COMMUNITY CENTRE & FAREWELL GET-TOGETHER

At the end of February our Community Centre on Wellington Street/Stanley Park will be closing for demolition. That's right. Some of you may not even be aware this community has a centre, but once upon a time, is was used by the neighbourhood for various get-togethers far more than it has been in the past few years. Its demolition is one aspect of the redesign for Stanley Park...(The fenced in off-leash dog area is one change, the renovations to the swimming pool building another, and, indeed, there are more are to come!) The plans for the park were decided upon last year, but some elements have already raised issues. Councillor Mike Layton's office wants to create a list of residents that would like to be contacted about the redesign and possibly have a chance to voice their opinions about the park. If you are interested in joining this list, please email us at community@nnnow.ca and put "Stanley Park email" in the subject line.

SAVE THE DATE!!!
