In 1997, Heritage Community Association (HCA) initiated a plan for a scenic “Art Park” on a vacant lot due to an 1989 fire at the corner of 11th Avenue and Halifax Street. The park was conceived as an alternative green space, a sort of “inner city oasis”. The Association worked hard to bring the vacant lot from a neglected space to a point of pride in the community.
