Celebration of Roxbury Legends

Reclaim Roxbury is a community organization dedicated to improving quality of life and economic wealth for Roxbury residents, preventing displacement, and supporting economic development. We work to ensure Roxbury residents are involved in the democratic process for new developments and have a say in community planning. We achieve this through education and advocacy in order to build a more prosperous and resilient Roxbury.

This March 6, Reclaim Roxbury invites you to historic Hibernian Hall for the Celebration of Roxbury Legends. Join us as we celebrate Reclaim Roxbury's mission to advance affordable housing, advocate for low income Bostonians, and promote the revitalization of Nubian Square led by visionaries in Roxbury.

This year, Reclaim Roxbury is proud to extend the "Roxbury Legends Award" to honor the vision of architect Greg Minott, and his leadership with DREAM Collaborative. Through projects like 2147 Washington Street, Greg has played a key role in developing homes and commercial spaces that balance innovation with community values, fostering opportunities for residents and local businesses alike. Join us as we celebrate Roxbury’s continuing evolution as a vibrant center for culture, creativity, and connection.

Save your seat on March 6 to celebrate the future of Nubian Square and learn about Reclaim Roxbury's work uplifting residents and preserving the rich cultural legacy of Roxbury. With Nubian Square poised for transformative development, Reclaim Roxbury plays a critical role in ensuring these changes align with the needs and aspirations of local residents. From fostering affordable housing to promoting community-centered development, their efforts empower Roxbury to reclaim its narrative and secure its future as a thriving, inclusive hub for generations to come. Together, let’s celebrate progress while honoring the legends who inspire it.
