Where the past
meets the possible.
Simpson Street is one of Thunder Bay’s most storied neighbourhoods - a place shaped by local families, small businesses, cultural gathering spots, and decades of shared history. As construction wraps up, we’re welcoming people back to a corridor with deep roots and great things ahead.
If you're interested in getting involved in this campaign, we'd love to hear from you - please email us at get@ingaged.ca.
