My Peter-McGill

Building our neighbourhood, together

This initiative is a 5-year collective project organized by local residents and organizations, to support the development of public space in the western downtown neighbourhood of Peter-McGill.

Innovation Youth & the My Peter-McGill project

This project brings together many organizations in our neighbourhood. Innovation Youth decided to join forces with our neighbours and residents, focusing on youth and children outreach in Peter-McGill.

Our mission in this project: empower youth and children to become better engaged in their community.

  • Increase the number and size of recreational and green spaces

  • Establish the neighbourhood’s first public primary schooll

  • Build more affordable housing units

  • Participate in the programming of the new community centre

My Peter-McGill is funded by Centraide and carried by the Peter-McGill Community Council with the support of various community organisations including Groupe Harmonie, Innovation Youth and the YWCA.

Neighbourhood on the Move

Neighborhood on the Move was a street festival that ran for 10 years. It was a collective of partners whose mission was to create a safe and festive space, promoting neighbourly relations, offering a diversity of free activities for all and to connect residents to their local services and organizations.
