Women Led the Campaign

Three women, united by a dedication to helping people find their own power,  spearheaded the Save Northgate effort: Brenda Torpy (CEDO), Anne-Marie Dennis (Northgate-Greenfield Tenants Association), and Amy Wright (CEDO).  As the core members of the Save Northgate Task Force, they maintained a constant relationship with all stakeholders throughout the multi-year process resulting in the option to finally, buy the complex. The three activists were instrumental in passing Burlington’s Condo Conversion Ordinance. The ordinance that kept private owners from developing the property into market-rate condos.
