The vision for North Richmond
North Richmond is home to many vibrant, diverse and proud communities.
Our revitalisation works at the North Richmond housing site are now complete and build on existing programs to strengthen renter and community safety, connection and amenity.
We’re committed to working with the community to better understand how we can strengthen inclusion, celebrate diversity and create a bright future for all residents and visitors.
