Welcome to the website for the Trefann Court Residents Association. Trefann Court is the area bounded by Queen, Parliament, Shuter and River streets, and has a long and colourful history. To the north is Regent Park (69 acre site owned by the city); to the south is Corktown. Trefann Court neighbourhood is recognized on the city’s wayfinding maps. Unlike Corktown or Regent Park, Trefann Court is designated by the city as a neighbourhood area: lower scale buildings such as detached houses, semi-detached houses, duplexes, triplexes and townhouses. Taller buildings are permitted along Parliament and Queen streets.
This website is maintained as a historic record of developments and changes affecting this neighbourhood.

The Trefann Court Association was quite feisty in the 1960s as it fought for its survival; read the 1967 newsletter. The Association was restarted in 1995 and again in 2008, but hasn’t been active recently; it could be re-started anytime there are several local residents who are interested and want to get involved. Some new items of local interest are still being added to this site.
