In 2015, Toronto's largest LGBTQ community organization began the process of proposing an LGBTQ-focused community recreation and sport center to revitalize Moss Park, one of Toronto's most economically and ethnically diverse neighborhoods. Moss Park, Toronto consists of both an actual park and an adjourning neighborhood. This project has been met with apprehension and opposition from many within the Moss Park neighborhood. Some have claimed that the project is illustrative of a neoliberalization of social justice (Roberts & Catungal, 2017) and a "waiving of the rainbow flag" over disadvantaged neighborhood (Lenskyj, 2015). However, the local LGBTQ community organization spearheading this project argues that it will act to both create the world's first LGBTQ-focused recreation and sport facility and revitalize existing derelict spaces within Moss Park to the benefit of the community. This dissertation explores the complex relationship that communities have with leisure spaces using the case of Moss Park as evidence. Using constructivist grounded theory as the analytical framework, narratives from qualitative semi-structured interviews with Moss Park residents (physical and vicarious), local service providers and activists, and stakeholders from the local LGBTQ community center, will inform this two-manuscript dissertation. Findings will discuss the role that this LGBTQ-focused recreation center will play in fears of neighborhood displacement resulting from gentrification (manuscript I) and the leisure needs, desires, and interests of LGBTQ individuals experiencing homelessness in the neighborhood, drawing particular attention to the importance of creating judgment-free, emancipatory leisure spaces to meet these needs (manuscript II).
