A Kamloops Neighbourhood Remembered

Urban revitalization often comes at the cost of history. A Kamloops Neighbourhood Remembered tells the story of a neighbourhood transformed by development, where twenty heritage homes made way for Kelson Group's City Gardens project.

Through archival records, newspaper clippings, photos, obituaries, and original artwork, this book captures the lives once lived in these homes—and the efforts made to remember them. From salvaged materials to commissioned paintings, community members and the Kelson Group worked to preserve the neighbourhood’s legacy.

More than a local history, this book is a tribute to the people, places, and memories that shaped Kamloops, and a reminder of what we stand to lose in the name of progress.
