There has been endless talk in Vancouver over many years now about the effects of gentrification on our beautiful city. How endless, you say? Well, Grandview’s own illustrious city historian Michael Kluckner will tell you at a lecture this coming Tuesday, September 30th, 7:30 pm at Hycroft, 1489 McRae Avenue.
As Michael writes: “This is my lecture on Gentrification in Vancouver, its historical roots in the city and its relationship to heritage, urban renewal and The Big Picture of global economic changes in recent decades.”
Tickets are a modest $12 and are available from http://www.vancouverheritagefoundation.org/learn-with-us/workshops-talks/evening-lectures/ or by calling 604 264-9642.
Michael is an excellent lecturer, always erudite and amusing. This will be a worthwhile evening for anyone interested in the subject.
