Hogan’s Alley Society is Reclaiming Roots and Restoring Community

Hogan’s Alley was once the home of Vancouver’s first Black neighbourhood. Until the 1970s, it was a flourishing cultural hub. When urban renewal and the construction of the Georgia and Dunsmuir viaducts demolished the community, that legacy was lost—but it wasn’t forgotten.

Today, the Hogan’s Alley Society (HAS), a Black-led nonprofit, honours the memory of Hogan’s Alley, reclaiming a physical space that was unjustly erased while building a future that envisions housing justice and cultural belonging.
