In 2016, to mark the hundredth birth anniversary of Jane Jacobs, a Toronto gallery staged "Jane at Home", an exhibition running from 29 April – 8 May. Curated by Jane's son, Jim Jacobs, it offered glimpses of her home life, where she also worked. Her Toronto living room was represented, based on the one at her Albany Avenue house in [[The Annex]], where she often spoke with noted thinkers and political leaders including [[Marshall McLuhan]], [[Paul Martin]], and the [[Monarchy of the Netherlands|Queen of the Netherlands]]. On display were her typewriter, original manuscripts, rediscovered photographs demonstrating her distinctive styles,<ref>{{cite magazine|last=Lange|first=Alexandra|url=http://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/jane-jacobs-georgia-okeeffe-and-the-power-of-the-marimekko-dress|title=Jane Jacobs, Georgia O'Keeffe, and the Power of the Marimekko Dress|magazine=[[The New Yorker]]|date=23 June 2017}}</ref> and personal mementos.

In 2007, the [[Municipal Art Society]] of New York partnered with the [[Rockefeller Foundation]] to host an exhibit focusing on "Jane Jacobs and the Future of New York", which opened at the society in September that year. The exhibit aimed to educate the public on her writings and activism and used tools to encourage new generations to become active in issues involving their own neighborhoods. An accompanying exhibit publication included essays and articles by such architecture critics, artists, activists, and journalists as [[Malcolm Gladwell]], [[Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping|Reverend Billy]], [[Robert Neuwirth]], [[Tom Wolfe]], [[Thomas de Monchaux]], and [[William McDonough]].<ref>{{cite web|website=urbancenterbooks.org |url=http://www.urbancenterbooks.org/jane_jacobs.html |title=Jane Jacobs |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110927151653/http://www.urbancenterbooks.org/jane_jacobs.html |archive-date=27 September 2011 }}</ref> Many of these contributors participated in a series of panel discussions on "Jane Jacobs and the Future of New York".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mas.org/images/media/original/JJMedalists.pdf |title=Rockefeller Foundation news advisory |access-date=28 April 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110607213026/http://www.mas.org/images/media/original/JJMedalists.pdf |archive-date=7 June 2011 }}</ref>
