Housing, homelessness & policy blog of Picture the Homeless. PTH Participates in Press Conference Regarding the Closing of Peter's PlaceSubmitted by admin on Thu, 06/25/2009 - 21:20.
Speech given regarding the closing of Peter's Place by Joan Harrison, former resident of Peter's Place and Civil Rights Leader of Picture the Homeless during Wednesday's press conference on the steps of City Hall. Wednesday June 24th, 2009 The recent media coverage of Peter's Place seems to confuse separate issues. One is the issue of the closing of Peter's Place. The other is the issue of the failure of Peter's Place to provide alternate living quarters for its residents. The latter complaint was voiced by many from the time I first resided at Peter's Place, and I was there for several months. Some seniors told me that they had been living at Peter's Place for several years. If improved accommodations had been made available, the closing of Peter's Place would probably be a matter of indifference.
