West End Museum

The West End Museum contains three exhibition spaces and an archive displaying photographs, documents, and artifacts about the West End neighborhood.

The museum emerged from a 1989 initiative by West Ender Newsletter editors to preserve memories of the neighborhood after 1950s urban renewal programs.

Exhibition galleries showcase the stories of Italian, Jewish, and Polish immigrants who created strong communities in the West End before urban renewal.

Located at 150 Staniford Street, the museum presents rotating exhibitions and maintains a collection of neighborhood photographs dating from the 1800s.

The permanent exhibition 'The Last Tenement' occupies 1,100 square feet of space, documenting the neighborhood before extensive demolition in the 1950s.
