Join us this Saturday at 12 p.m. at the start of the Happy Holidays from ROX festivities in the Roxborough Pocket Park as we honor the legacy of Jack Wheeler, a founding member of the Roxborough Development Corporation and a dedicated community leader.
We were delighted to hear that City Council passed the resolution, introduced by Councilmember Curtis Jones, to rename the 400 block of Krams Avenue to “Jack Wheeler Way”, in recognition of Jack's outstanding service to the Roxborough community and his role in the formation of the Roxborough Development Corporation.
While the official street signs for the 400 block of Krams Avenue are being finalized, we’ll present a commemorative sign to Jack’s family in recognition of his lasting impact on Roxborough. Let’s come together to celebrate his contributions and pay tribute to a true cornerstone of our community.
