Title l of the 1949 Housing Act authorized federal grants and loans to localities for slum clearance and urban redevelopment, under the condition that there be "a feasible method for the temporary relocation of families displaced from the project area and the permanent provision of decent dwellings at prices and rents within the financial means of such families." Ostensibly, slum clearance was done to promote the building of low and moderate income housing. However, private developers were largely uninterested in inner-city residential redevelopment when vacant land was readily available at the periphery. The first lesson of urban renewal was clearly taught, if not learned: land clearance does not create demand. Instead, public housing was developed in large scale residential "projects" in urban renewal district. 3, record 1, English, - urban%20redevelopment

D'une façon générale, on peut qualifier de rénovation, toute opération coordonnée de construction d'un îlot ou d'un quartier. La rénovation urbaine qui est un renouvellement du tissu urbain existant est donc le complément de l'urbanisation périphérique. Elle se distingue par ailleurs de la restauration immobilière dans laquelle la plupart des constructions existantes sont conservées. 5, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9novation%20urbaine

The naval and military establishments in Penetanguishene operated for 39 years, from 1817 to 1856. In the summer of 1951, the Chamber of Commerce of Penetanguishene decided to develop the site of the old establishment as an historical and recreation park. It restored the remaining buildings, the officer’s quarters, and opened a scenic road along the bay. It was called the Historic Naval and Military Establishments. Its name has been changed just recently to Discovery Harbour and it is a picturesque scene covered with old buildings and horse drawn carriages. 2, record 3, English, - Discovery%20Harbour
