This is for the long-time residents of Harbord Village. Do you
know any? Please spread the word.
Cheers,

Did you grow up between Bathurst, Spadina, Bloor, and
College before 1975 or attend school such as Huron Public School, King
Edward, Harbord Collegiate, or Central Tech? Do you have memories of the
neighbourhood that you'd like to share? If so, we need your help!
The Harbord Village Residents Association is exploring its
history, with the help of a grant from the Trillium Foundation. The goal is to
collect 100 oral histories – recorded interviews – of our past, from among
those who remember life here decades ago.
We are now at about the half-way mark, with an exhibit
planned at the JCC and area schools in the fall. We are also designing a
permanent online, indexed archive of these stories, so that our history – which
has never been recorded before – is not just collected, but also published.
Finding people who grew up in the area but now live
elsewhere is not easy for us. If you, or someone you know, might be interested
in sharing your stories, please contact Nicole Schulman at n.m.schulman@gmail.com.
Thanks!"
