The Salvation Army is exploring options to relocate its York Boulevard men's shelter as part of discussions with the Hamilton Urban Precinct Entertainment Group (HUPEG) for a downtown redevelopment. The 120-bed Booth Centre has operated since the 1950s but is seen as incompatible with HUPEG's plans for an entertainment precinct. A memorandum of understanding has been signed to assist in exploring relocation, with city planning reviews needed for any potential site.
