The “Wing’s Block”: A Cultural Anchor for Chinatown’s Future

For generations, Wing Noodles stood as a symbol of continuity in an ever-changing neighbourhood. Its landmark buildings stand within the heritage-designated institutional core of the district, a block with some of Chinatown’s oldest buildings and community organizations, holding significant potential for the neighbourhood’s future.

Today, the “Wing’s Block” stands at the intersection of memory and possibility. The JIA Foundation is bringing together residents, businesses, institutions and community partners to imagine the future of this historic site. The goal is not simply to preserve an important landmark in Montréal, but to have the Wing Noodles legacy inspire a vision that places culture, heritage and community values at the heart of urban development.

This event will present the newly released “Wing’s Block” Vision, followed by a panel discussion with Jessica Chen (JIA Foundation), Ron Rayside (Rayside Labossière) and Taïka Baillargeon (Héritage Montréal), with financial support from the City of Montréal.
